Von Hippel-Lindau is Associated to Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors: A Comprehensive Review.
Article in Journal of kidney cancer and VHL, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Multiorgan tumors are a hallmark of the autosomal dominant genetic disorder known as Von Hippel-Lindau syndrome (VHL), which is typically the result of inherited aberrations of the VHL tumor suppressor gene. The most frequent cancer is retinoblastoma, which can also occur in the brain and spinal cord, renal clear cell carcinoma (RCCC), paraganglioma, and neuroendocrine tumors. There may also be lymphangiomas, epididymal cysts, and pancreatic cysts or pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs). The most frequent causes of death are metastasis from RCCC and neurological complications from retinoblastoma or central nervous system (CNS). Pancreatic cysts are present in 35-70% of VHL patients. Simple cysts, serous cysts, or pNETs are possible presentations, and the likelihood of malignant degeneration or metastasis is no greater than 8%. Although VHL has been associated with pNETs, their pathological characteristics are unknown. Furthermore, it is unknown whether variations in the VHL gene cause the development of pNETs. Hence, this retrospective study was undertaken with the main aim to examine whether pNETs are connected to VHL from a surgical perspective.
