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

Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) originating from extrahepatic bile duct are an extremely rare entity. They are typically slow growing tumours with malignant potential. Commonly presenting as obstructive jaundice, preoperative clinico-radiologic differentiation between extrahepatic biliary tract neuroendocrine tumours and cholangiocarcinoma is difficult and the final diagnosis is usually established after surgical histopathology and immunohistochemistry examination. R0 resection offers the only curative option with good long-term outcomes for well-differentiated NETs (grade1, grade2, and grade3) while the aggressive poorly differentiated neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) needs multimodality approach. We present our experience of management of four cases including three cases of grade II NET and one case of NEC undergoing surgical resection at a single centre with a short review of available literature.
