LAPAROTOMIC RADIOFREQUENCY ABLATION OF PANCREATIC INSULINOMA.
Article in Arquivos brasileiros de cirurgia digestiva : ABCD = Brazilian archives of digestive surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Insulinomas are rare neoplasms of the endocrine pancreas. Minimally invasive treatment options for insulinomas have gained prominence, replacing surgical resection due to its associated morbidity and mortality. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) has emerged as a relevant treatment option. We present a case of a female patient with neuroglycopenic symptoms and severe hypoglycemic crises. The abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a small nodular lesion in the pancreatic body. Laparotomy was performed, followed by RFA using a 15-mm active-tipped needle. No complications transpired, and no hypoglycemic episodes were observed during 12 months of follow-up.
