1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Acinar cystic transformation (ACT), also known as 'acinar cell cystadenoma', is an uncommon cystic neoplasm of pancreas with unknown malignant potential. This case regards a woman with symptomatic pancreatic head ACT, revealed with pathological exam of specimen after pancreaticoduodenectomy. A 57-years-old patient presented mild hyperbilirubinemia and recurrent cholangitis; she underwent to ERCP, EUS and MRI, and these exams revealed a large cyst of the pancreatic head that caused biliary compression. The discussion of the case by the multidisciplinary group indicated surgical resection. Pancreatic ACT is so rare, and its preoperative diagnosis is difficult. The symptoms of the patients and the features of the cyst are the criteria to choose a surgical resection.
