Long‑term survival after comprehensive treatment in a patient with advanced neuroendocrine neoplasm of the pancreas: A case report.
Article in Oncology letters, 2025. 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
Neuroendocrine neoplasms of the pancreas (pNENs) are rare. In February 2021, a 54-year-old woman was diagnosed with pNEN and multiple metastases within the liver. The patient, diagnosed with grade G2 neuroendocrine neoplasm (T4N0M1), underwent an ultrasonography-guided liver biopsy and radiofrequency ablation. After receiving Sandostatin LAR in April 2021, side effects led to its discontinuation after seven cycles. Following two sessions of radiofrequency ablation, the patient's condition was stable. However, disease progression was noted in September 2023, resulting in hemodialysis and closed peritoneal drainage. Surufatinib was administered, stabilizing the tumor by November 2023. The patient underwent transarterial chemoembolization due to a large tumor burden, with subsequent MRCP showing stability from diagnosis in February 2021 to June 2024. The present case report highlights the role of tailored treatment strategies considering patient comorbidities and tumor biology, and the significance of secondary puncture biopsy, which, despite not being pursued by the patient in the present study due to the associated risks, may provide survival benefits for patients with advanced or metastatic pNEN.
