Somatostatin Analogue Therapy in MEN1-Related Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors from Evidence to Clinical Practice: A Systematic Review.
Review in Pharmaceuticals (Basel, Switzerland), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) are relatively rare and complex tumors that can be sporadic or hereditary, as in the context of multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 (MEN1) where patients display a 70% lifelong risk of developing a pancreatic NENs (pNENs). To date, specific personalized treatment for pNENs in patients with MEN1 are lacking. The aim of this study was to systematically analyze the efficacy and safety of somatostatin analogue (SSA) treatment in patients affected by MEN1-related pNENs. We performed a systematic review of the literature, searching for peer-reviewed articles on SSA (octreotide or lanreotide) treatment in MEN1 associated with pNENs. We selected 20 studies with a pooled population of 105 MEN1 patients with pNENs. Females were 58.5%, median age was 44 years (18-73). TNM stage at diagnosis was stage I-II in 84.8% and stage IV in 15.2%. The overall response rate (SD+PR+CR) was achieved in 88.3% of cases, with stable disease in 75.6% and objective response in 12.7% of patients. The safety profile was favorable with both SSA agents. SSAs appear to be an effective and safe treatment option for MEN1-related pNEN, either at localized or advanced stages.
