Acute pancreatitis revealing an isolated hydatid pancreatic cyst simulating a pseudocyst: A case report.
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 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
Hydatid disease is a worldwide public health problem, especially in endemic countries, caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosis. The pancreatic location of this disease is exceptional, representing only 1% of all possible locations, making this a widely misdiagnosed entity. We report a case of a 42-year-old man with a history of alcoholism and recurring abdominal pain, who presented to the emergency department with acute pancreatitis revealing a hydatid pancreatic cyst mimicking as a pseudocyst of the pancreas. The diagnosis was established using computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging.
