The Role of MRI in the Diagnosis of Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas and Its Mimickers: A Case-Based Review with Emphasis on Differential Diagnosis.

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
Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is rare pancreatic tumor occurring most commonly in young females. The typical imaging appearance of SPN is of well-defined, encapsulated, and large heterogeneous tumors, consisting of solid and cystic components due to various degrees of intralesional hemorrhage and necrosis. However, atypical imaging presentation in the form of small solid tumors or uniformly cystic lesions might also be seen, which can be explained by specific pathological characteristics. Other imaging features such as a round shape, the absence of main pancreatic duct dilatation, and slow growth, in combination with vague symptoms, favor the diagnosis of SPNs. Nevertheless, the radiological findings of SPN might overlap with other solid and cystic pancreatic neoplasms, such as neuroendocrine tumors, serous and mucinous neoplasms, and even small pancreatic adenocarcinomas. In addition, a few benign non-tumorous conditions including walled-of-necrosis, and intrapancreatic accessory spleen may also pose diagnostic dilemmas simulating SPNs on imaging studies. The aim of this manuscript is to provide a comprehensive overview of the typical and atypical imaging features of SPNs and to describe useful tips for differential diagnosis with its potential mimickers.
