1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundPancreatic paragangliomas (PPGL) are rare benign neuroendocrine neoplasms but malignancy can occur. PPGL are often misdiagnosed as pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor or pancreatic adenocarcinoma. CASE SUMMARY: We reviewed 47 case reports of PPGL published in PubMed to date. Fifteen patients (15/47) with PPGL underwent endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA). Only six (6/15) were correctly diagnosed as PPGL. All patients with PPGL underwent surgical resection except three (one patient surgery was aborted because of hypertensive crisis, two patients had metastasis or involvement of major vessels). Our patient remained on close surveillance as she was asymptomatic.

conclusionAccurate preoperative diagnosis of PPGL can be safely achieved by EUS-FNA with immunohistochemistry. Multidisciplinary team approach should be considered to bring the optimal results in the management of PPGL.
