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

Large-duct type pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is a rare morphologic variant forming large duct elements. This case report, to our knowledge, is the first report of a large-duct type PDA with a "honeycomb" appearance resembling a serous cystic neoplasm (SCN) on CT and MRI. The patient is an 82-year-old woman who presented with upper abdominal pain. Dynamic contrast-enhanced CT revealed a multilocular cyst with honeycomb loculi, in which the cyst walls showed gradual enhancement. On T2-weighted MRI, the mass displayed inhomogeneous hyperintensity characterized by a honeycomb appearance with irregular and thick hypointense cyst walls. The patient underwent distal pancreatectomy; histopathological diagnosis was large-duct type PDA. Although the imaging features of large-duct type PDA may resemble those of SCN, this distinction between PDA and SCN is important because the treatment options are very different.
