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

objectivesTo report the histopathological pattern of primary pancreatic lymphoma (PPL) in 2 tertiary hospitals.

methodsThe pathology slides and reports of all the cases diagnosed in pathology departments in 2 referral hospitals were reviewed. An additional immunohistochemistry study was done to reclassify lymphomas according to the current system.

resultsEight patients with PPL have been identified. The ages ranged from 36 to 71 years. Clinical presentation includes abdominal pain, weight loss, jaundice, abdominal mass, nausea, and vomiting. Pathological evaluation revealed 5 diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, one high-grade B-cell lymphoma, one MALT lymphoma, and one follicular lymphoma.

conclusionPrimary pancreatic lymphoma is a very rare tumor without specific clinical, laboratory tests, or radiological findings. Abdominal pain is the most common clinical presentation. Diffuse large b-cell lymphoma is the most common pathological subtype. Primary pancreatic lymphoma should be taken into consideration when evaluating pancreatic mass to avoid unnecessary surgical resection.
