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

backgroundMultiple primary malignant tumors are two or more malignancies in an individual without any relationship between the neoplasms. In recent years, an increasing number of cases have been reported. However, concomitant primary gastric and pancreatic cancer reported a relatively small incidence, involving no pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma reports. Here, we present the first case of concomitant pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma and gastric adenocarcinoma. CASE SUMMARY: A 69-year-old male presented to our department with a history of vomiting, epigastric pain, and weight loss. Imaging revealed space-occupying lesions in the stomach and the tail of the pancreas, respectively. The patient underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and pancreatectomy simultaneously. The pathologies of surgical specimens were completely different: The resected gastric specimen was moderate to poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, whereas the pancreatic tumor was consistent with acinar cell carcinoma. The patient was treated with six cycles of oxaliplatin and S-1 chemotherapy. As of March 2021, the patient was healthy without any recurrence or metastasis. After thoroughly reviewing the literature on simultaneous pancreatic and gastric cancers at home and abroad, we discussed the clinical characteristics of these rare synchronous double cancers. Most of the cases had undergone surgery and adjuvant chemotherapy, and all of the cases were pathologically confirmed by the postoperative specimen.

conclusionSynchronous pancreatic acinar cells and gastric adenocarcinoma can occur and should be considered when tumors are found in these organs.
