Presence of tumor deposits is an indicator of poor prognosis in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
Article in American journal of cancer research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Tumor deposits (TDs) are associated with poor prognosis in several malignancies and have been incorporated into the tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging system for colorectal cancer. This study aims to explore the significance of TDs in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). All patients who underwent pancreatectomy with a curative intent for PDAC were retrospectively enrolled. Patients were categorized into 2 groups according to the status of TDs: the positive group, in which TDs were present, and the negative group, in which TDs were absent. The prognostic significance of TDs was evaluated. In addition, a modified staging system was developed by incorporating TDs into the eighth edition of the TNM staging system. One hundred nine (17.8%) patients had TDs. Patients with TDs demonstrated significantly lower 5-year overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates than those without TDs (OS: 9.1%
