Primary extrahepatic biliary neuroendocrine tumor: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Extrahepatic biliary neuroendocrine tumors (EBNETs) are extremely rare and difficult to diagnose. The vast majority are diagnosed postoperatively on histological evaluation of surgical specimens. Workup and treatment principles are largely based on retrospective series and case reports. Complete surgical resection is the gold standard treatment for these lesions. Here we present a case of a 77-year-old male with a biopsy-proven EBNET incidentally discovered during evaluation for fatty liver disease. Further workup did not show any other suspicious lesions. Resection of the tumor and multiple Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy was performed. Final pathology revealed grade 1, well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor. This is the third case reported in the literature with a confirmed preoperative EBNET diagnosis based on endoscopic biopsy results. This case highlights the feasibility of preoperative diagnosis of EBNETs and emphasizes the importance of complete surgical resection.
