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

Primary pancreatic lymphoma is a rare type of cancer, that accounts for 0.1-0.5% of lymphomas and about 0.2% of all primary pancreatic tumors. Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma is the most common subtype. The diagnosis is possible if the lymphoma is located in the pancreas, but the differential diagnosis with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is difficult. The diagnostic accuracy of endosonography-guided fine needle aspiration is inadequate, and thus it is common to diagnose these masses only after surgical resection. The endosonography-guided tissue acquisition allows greater accuracy in the pancreatic masses, as it determines optimal access to histological analysis using tissue in paraffin blocks for complementary immunohistochemical, and molecular tests. Thus, this elaborate diagnostic environment allows the adoption of appropriate treatment strategies for patients with this condition. The authors describe four cases of primary pancreatic lymphoma indicated for surgical resection due to suspected pancreatic cancer, with the diagnosis of Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma obtained by endosonography-guided tissue acquisition, changing the therapeutic strategy through the adoption of adequate chemotherapy treatment with good progress.
