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
backgroundCollision tumors are composed of two distinct tumor components. Collision tumors composed of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and malignant lymphoma occurring in the pancreas have not been previously described in the scientific literature. In this case report, we describe a unique patient with a collision tumor composed of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and peri-pancreatic mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma occurring in the pancreas. CASE PRESENTATION: An 82-year-old woman presented to our hospital complaining of dizziness. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a large lymphoid lesion spreading from the peri-pancreatic tissue heading to the hepatic hilar plate, involving the hepatoduodenal ligament and the entire duodenum, also showing a hard tumor in the pancreas head. We performed echo-guided needle biopsies for each tumor and diagnosed a collision tumor composed of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and low-grade B cell lymphoma. The patient underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy. The resected specimen showed an elastic hard tumor, 90 × 75 mm in size, located in the pancreatic head, and a whitish-yellow hard tumor involving the lower bile duct, 31 mm in size, located in the center of the pancreatic head. Pathological and immunohistochemical examination proved that pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and MALT lymphoma originating from the peri-pancreatic head collided in the pancreatic head.
conclusionsTo best of our knowledge, this is the first report of a surgically resected collision tumor of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and MALT lymphoma originating from the peri-pancreatic head. A needle biopsy is useful when inconsistent findings are observed on diagnostic CT and MRI of tumor lesions since there is the possibility of a collision tumor.
