A Clinical Guide to the Management of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms: the Need for a More Graded Approach in Clinical Decision-making.
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) have become a very common diagnosis and represent a spectrum of disease that ranges from benign to malignant lesions. Presently, clinical and radiographic features are used to predict the presence of high-grade dysplasia and invasive cancer to inform treatment decisions of whether to pursuit surgical resection or continued surveillance. However, the natural history of IPMNs is still not completely understood, with guidelines from different societies providing contradictory recommendations. This underscores the challenge in balancing the risk of missing cancer with long-term surveillance and the morbidity associated with surgical resection. In this review, we aim to reconcile the differences in the guidelines' recommendations and provide a clinical framework to the management of IPMNs with hopes of adding clarity to how treatment decisions should be made. We also highlight recent advances made in the field and future efforts that can minimize rates of missing cancer while also reducing the number of unnecessary operations.
