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

Patients with Lynch syndrome, most commonly associated with colorectal cancer, have an increased risk of developing other tumors including pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and precursor lesions, such as intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms. Here, we present a case of a man in his early 20s who presented with a retroperitoneal mass involving the head of the pancreas. Following a pancreaticoduodenectomy combined with para-aortic lymphadenectomy, a pathologic diagnosis of colloid carcinoma, also known as mucinous noncystic carcinoma, of the pancreas was reported. Further testing established the diagnosis of Lynch syndrome. This case is unique because colloid carcinoma of the pancreas is rare and has never been reported as an initial presentation of Lynch syndrome.
