Main-Duct Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm Complicated by a Pancreaticogastric Fistula and a Pancreaticocholedocal Fistula.

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
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) of the pancreas are a spectrum of benign to malignant epithelial neoplasms that are characterized by papillary proliferation, duct dilation, and cyst formation. A rare complication of IPMNs is fistula formation into adjacent organs such as the duodenum, biliary system, and stomach. Here, we report a case of IPMN with a pancreaticobiliary fistula and pancreaticogastric fistula. An 84-year-old woman with early Alzheimer's disease was diagnosed with IPMN of the pancreas. She deferred surgery given her age and remained asymptomatic for five years until presenting with cholangitis. She had been further evaluated and was found to have a pancreaticobiliary fistula, which was treated with biliary stent placement. Her subsequent admission involved the formation of a new pancreaticogastric fistula. This case highlights potential complications of excess mucin production from unresected IPMNs and demonstrates a guarded prognosis in elderly patients.
