Unveiling the Unexpected: Co-occurrence of Acute Pancreatitis and Riedel's Lobe.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Riedel's lobe is a rare anatomical variant of the liver, more often being diagnosed incidentally, with the patient being investigated for other underlying pathology. As regards acute pancreatitis, this represents one of the most treated diseases worldwide in gastroenterology with a variable severity and outcome. Here, we report a case of a non-palpable Riedel's lobe in a 47-year-old man, smoker, and chronic alcohol consumer, who presented to the hospital with epigastric pain radiating in the right hypochondrium, accompanied by nausea. Based on his clinical examination, laboratory, and imaging findings, he was admitted in the gastroenterology department with the diagnosis of alcohol-related acute pancreatitis. The computed tomography scan emphasized the presence of Riedel's lobe, causing an increased anterior diameter of the liver. Riedel's lobe is, in most cases, an unforeseen radiologic disclosure, which can remain clinically latent, or it can raise confusion regarding the differential diagnosis.
