Isolated primary hydatid cyst of the pancreas: Management challenges of a cystic masquerade.
Article in Annals of hepato-biliary-pancreatic surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Abdominal hydatid cyst disease mostly involves the liver. Involvement of the pancreas as an isolated primary organ is rare accounting for < 2% of all systemic echinococcosis cases. It mostly involves the head of the pancreas. Symptoms depend on the location, size, and associated complications; therefore, it can have varied presentations including acute pancreatitis. On imaging, it can mimic other common pancreatic cystic lesions like pseudocyst or cystic neoplasm. Accurate preoperative diagnosis is usually difficult and requires a very high index of suspicion even in endemic areas. Herein, a case of primary isolated hydatid cyst of the pancreas that was initially diagnosed and managed as acute pancreatic pseudocyst is reported.
