Gemcitabine-induced peripheral vascular disease and prolonged response in a patient with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundGemcitabine is an antimetabolite used in the treatment of pancreatic cancer. One of the side effects of gemcitabine is vascular toxicity. Here, we report the case of a patient treated with gemcitabine who had peripheral vascular disease concomitant with a prolonged antitumor response. CASE SUMMARY: A 75-year-old man was diagnosed with locally recurrent pancreatic cancer. Partial response was achieved after 9 mo of gemcitabine. At the same time, the patient reported peripheral vascular disease without necrosis. Chemotherapy was suspended, and after one month the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan showed locoregional tumor recurrence. Gemcitabine was resumed and partial response was obtained, but peripheral vascular disease occurred.
conclusionOur results suggest that the appearance of peripheral vascular disease may be related to a prolonged response to gemcitabine.
