Hyperammonemic Encephalopathy in a Patient with Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumor and Portosystemic Shunt.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Hyperammonemia can lead to encephalopathy and may be accompanied by a diagnostic dilemma. Imaging as well as biochemical analyses are the cornerstone for identifying possible underlying causes such as severe liver disease or urea cycle defect. We report a case of a patient that presented with neurological deficits based on hyperammonemia in the presence of a large pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor (PNET) and portosystemic shunts in the liver. Prior cases are rather scarce, and the exact mechanism is not fully understood. The case illustrates the added value of a multimodality imaging approach in patients presenting with hyperammonemia-induced encephalopathy.
