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

Diagnosing small bowel cancer has been challenging due to its unusual presentation and inaccessibility on endoscopy. A 41-year-old male with a history of irritable bowel syndrome underwent esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) for worsening fatigue and lightheadedness despite iron supplements therapy for low hemoglobin. Initial upper endoscopy showed esophagitis and non-bleeding duodenal bulb ulcer with exudate. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) with fine-needle aspiration was done due to persistent concern of malignancy and demonstrated moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma in the second portion of the duodenum. Endoscopic ultrasound with fine-needle aspiration may be a superior approach to diagnosing duodenal carcinoma than EGD alone. Small bowel cancer can be a part of the tumor spectrum of Lynch syndrome. Duodenal adenocarcinomas present at a late stage and portend a poor prognosis. We present a case of duodenal adenocarcinoma in an otherwise healthy individual emphasizing the importance of malignancy in the differential and genetic counseling in individuals with the family risk factor.
