Immunoglobulin G4-related pancreatitis presenting as an obstructive pancreatic mass in a Latino male.
Article in Journal of family & community medicine. 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
Immunoglobulin G4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a localized or diffuse autoimmune fibro-inflammatory condition that can affect any organ. The literature is sparse on IgG4-RD in the Latino population. This is a case report of a Latino male diagnosed with IgG4-related pancreatitis presenting as a mass. Our 40-year-old Latino male patient presented with diarrhea and epigastric discomfort progressing to jaundice and pruritus. He had associated elevations in liver enzymes, antinuclear antibody, and IgG4. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography revealed a lobulated pancreatic head mass with common bile duct (CBD) narrowing. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biopsy of the pancreas revealed no malignancy, and the patient underwent CBD stenting through endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. The patient demonstrated a favorable response to systemic glucocorticoid therapy with resolution of his symptoms and normalization of his liver function tests. Coronavirus disease-2019 infection during treatment had no impact on the outcomes.
