Challenges of Diagnosis: Periampullary Mass-Induced Obstructive Jaundice in a Young Woman.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Periampullary cancers, which include pancreatic adenocarcinoma, ampullary cancer, distal cholangiocarcinoma, and duodenal cancer, present diagnostic and management challenges due to their aggressive nature and nonspecific symptoms. We describe a case of a female patient, age 20, who had obstructive jaundice brought on by a periampullary tumor. Despite difficulties in diagnosis and treatment, including failed endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), the patient underwent a successful pancreaticoduodenectomy (Whipple's resection), and subsequent immunohistochemistry revealed adenocarcinoma with a mixed immunophenotype expressing duodenal and pancreatic markers. This example emphasizes the significance of taking young patients' periampullary tumors into account, the difficulties in diagnosing them, and the possibility of effective surgical surgery throughout this age range.
