Pancreatic involvement in Erdheim-Chester disease: Rare presentation of a rare disease.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Erdheim-Chester disease (ECD) as a rare non-Langerhans histiocytosis has various clinical manifestations. It is characterized histologically by infiltration of every organ, more commonly bone, retroperitoneum, cardiovascular and CNS systems with foamy, lipid -laden macrophage. Pancreatic involvement as a manifestation of this uncommon disease has very rarely been reported. Here we report a 73-year-old woman with ECD and pancreas involvement in CT, MRI and PET scans. We also aim to increase radiologist knowledge about considering ECD as a differential diagnosis for pancreas mass in the appropriate clinical situation.
