Pancreatic Extragastrointestinal Stromal Tumor: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are soft tissue sarcomas that originate from the mesenchymal cells of the gastrointestinal tract. Extra-GISTs (EGISTs) are caused by sites outside the gastrointestinal tract. We reported a case of EGIST of the pancreas in a 51-year-old woman. Enhanced CT scan showed a rounded, slightly hypointense focus in the head of the pancreas and the right pars compacta of the descending duodenum. Routine laboratory and endocrine tests were unremarkable. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery. The diagnosis of EGIST was confirmed through histopathological and immunohistochemical examination. The tumor was found to be CD117+, CD34+, and DOG+ with a high risk of malignancy. No recurrence was observed during the nine-month postoperative follow-up.
