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

A 50-year-old man with a history of nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC) 11 years prior was diagnosed with gastric and multiple pancreatic metastases of RCC. He underwent a pyloric gastrectomy and total pancreatic resection. RCC metastases to the pancreas are rare, and gastric metastases are even rarer. This case represents a rare instance of simultaneous RCC metastases to both the stomach and pancreas. Although there is no difference in prognosis between solitary and multiple pancreatic metastases, surgical resection is recommended even for multiple lesions. However, preoperative imaging often fails to identify all pancreatic metastatic lesions, making total pancreatectomy a consideration for ensuring complete resection, especially when preoperative detection is challenging.
