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

An insulinoma is a rare neuroendocrine tumor characterized by inappropriate secretion of insulin with resultant hypoglycemia and concomitant symptoms. Symptoms include diaphoresis, tremor, palpitations, tachycardia, visual disturbances, weakness, confusion, syncope, seizures, and even coma. Enteropancreatic neoplasms are rare in general but among them, insulinomas are among the more common neuroendocrine tumors though they still have a very low incidence. They can be benign or malignant, however, the latter is exceptionally rare. In the case of malignancy, such spread usually includes metastasis to the liver and surrounding nodes. They can also be sporadic or occur in association with other inherited conditions. Herein, we present a case of insulinoma in a 51-year-old female.
