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

Obesity is a leading risk factor of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) that contributes to poor disease prognosis and outcomes. Retrospective studies have identified this link, but interactions surrounding obesity and PDAC are still unclear. Research has shifted to contributions of fibrosis (desmoplasia) on malignancy, which involves increased deposition of collagens and other extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules and increased ECM crosslinking, all of which contribute to increased tissue stiffening. However, fibrotic stiffening is underrepresented as a model feature in current PDAC models. Fibrosis is shared between PDAC and obesity, and can be leveraged for
