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

Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) are generally hypervascular and readily detectable on imaging tests. However, hypovascular PanNETs are clinically problematic, requiring multiple imaging tests and tissue analyses to differentiate them from pancreatic ductal cancers. A 41 year-old man presented with Whipple's triad; 72 h fasting test followed by glucagon challenge test suggested insulinoma. However, contrast-enhanced computed tomography image showed a 17 mm tumor with poor enhancement and unclear borders in the tail of the pancreas
