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

Background: Intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct (IPNB) is a rare bile duct neoplasm characterized by an intraluminal papillary growth pattern in bile ducts and is considered a biliary counterpart of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas. Case description: We report here two cases. (1) A case of a 34-year-old woman who presented with complaints of pain in the abdomen, jaundice, and pruritus. Further radiological investigations revealed the possibility of an IPNB, which was confirmed on histopathology. (2) A case of a 61-year-old man who was a known case of Barrett's esophagus and presented with complaints of right upper abdomen and jaundice. Radiological investigations and histopathology further confirmed the diagnosis of an IPNB involving the extrahepatic bile ducts. The purpose of this article is to highlight the role of computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging in reaching this challenging diagnosis. Conclusion: Although the diagnosis is not straightforward, imaging plays a great role in raising the possibility of an IPNB. The correct preoperative diagnosis is necessary for accurate surgical planning and resection. How to cite this article: Jain K.
