Cutaneous presentation of metastatic pancreatic cancer.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Pancreatic cancer typically presents with a cholestatic picture of jaundice, bloating and bowel changes, secondary to the obstruction of the biliary system. In tail of pancreas metastases, this clinical presentation may be absent, meaning that the disease progression can be more insidious. Cutaneous spread in pancreatic malignancies is often iatrogenic due to direct spread from the tumour site during diagnostic sampling or surgery. Rarely, cutaneous spread can be noted at distant sites, which is associated with widespread disease dissemination and poor prognostic outcomes. Our case focusses on a patient who developed metastatic spread to the chin, as a first presentation, with no other significant associated symptoms identified.
