Resectable Distal Duodenal Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumour Presenting with Features of Anaemia.
Article in Journal of the West African College of Surgeons. 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
Although gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are encountered all along the gastrointestinal tract, duodenal GISTs are uncommon and account for <5% of the cases. A 45-year-old woman presented chiefly with anaemia and associated symptoms, whom on further evaluation was found to have a non-metastatic GIST in the distal duodenum sparing the pancreas and major vasculature. Patient was undertaken for segmental duodenectomy with the help of advanced bipolar energy device (tumour occupying D3-D4 with 1 cm proximal margin and 15 cm jejunum) preserving the pancreas and ampulla with end-to-end duodenojejunostomy with an uneventful postoperative course and clear margins on histopathology. Thus, the patient underwent a less morbid procedure with satisfactory oncological outcome and early resumption of activity. This highlights the need to conduct more trials to gather high level evidence in favour of conservative resection and its oncological adequacy and impact on overall survival and recurrence.
