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

Case summary: This report describes the case of a 7-year-old male neutered domestic mixed-breed cat that was initially referred to the Veterinary Hospital of the State University of Londrina for evaluation of a 2-week history of abdominal distension and a 2-day history of anorexia, infected with feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV). Abdominal ultrasound revealed an expansive mass located around the pancreas and right hepatic lobe. In the transoperative macroscopic observation, multiple white nodules were visualized in the liver, pancreas, mesentery, intestine, stomach and peritoneal wall. Immunohistochemical examination revealed that neoplastic cells demonstrated a strong positivity for AE1/AE3 and CK20. A sparse immunoreactivity to chromogranin A was observed, which demonstrates neuroendocrine cell labeling. The histopathologic changes associated with the immunohistochemical profile confirmed the diagnosis of metastatic carcinoma with neuroendocrine differentiation, originating from the pancreas. Relevance and novel information: Neuroendocrine tumors of the pancreas are rare and are associated with a poor prognosis in humans. In humans, approximately 7% of neuroendocrine tumors develop in the pancreas, and the 5-year survival rate for a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor is 53%, according to the American Cancer Society. To our knowledge, only one case has been described in the feline species so far. Due to the rarity of this type of tumor in cats, there is little information about predisposition related to age, sex or breed, as well as the main clinical signs presented, survival time and treatment options.
