A Unique Presentation of Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas Requiring Pancreaticoduodenectomy Without Pancreatojejunostomy: A Case Report and Literature Review.
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
Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs) of the pancreas are rare tumors that predominantly affect young females and are typically located in the body and tail of the pancreas. Here, we present the case of a 59-year-old male with a large, heavily calcified SPN in the pancreatic head. His surgical history includes an aborted pancreaticoduodenectomy due to vascular involvement, followed by a gastrojejunostomy. Twenty years after the initial discovery, a pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed - the first of its kind - where the pancreas was completely atrophied, and no pancreaticojejunostomy was performed. Histological examination revealed typical features of SPN. This case demonstrates that even with relatively large lesions in a male patient over an extended duration, SPNs can still exhibit favorable features, highlighting the absence of specific preoperative markers for aggressive tumors. Therefore, unless there is an absolute contraindication, complete resection of all SPNs remains advisable.
