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

This case report follows a 70-year-old male patient with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome undergoing computed tomography (CT) for weight loss and surveillance of bilateral adrenal nodules. Incidentally, diffuse gastric and duodenal wall thickening was noted on CT. The patient underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy with biopsy results showing well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NET) in the stomach and duodenum. Subsequent imaging with gallium-68 DOTATATE PET/CT showed intense tracer uptake in the stomach and proximal duodenum with liver and regional nodal metastases around the superior mesenteric artery. This case outlines the utility of Ga-68 DOTATATE PET/CT in diagnosing, localizing, and staging NET such as gastrinomas.
