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

The mesenteric extension of small neuroendocrine tumors is the surgical limiting factor because of the risk of postoperative short bowel syndrome due to superior mesenteric artery involvement. Recent pathological studies have shown that this vascular involvement is due to mesenteric tumor deposits, differentiated from lymph node metastases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the performances of computed tomography (CT) for the surgical planning of small intestine neuroendocrine tumors. This was a retrospective observational study, and all patients undergoing surgery for small intestine neuroendocrine tumor between January 2014 and March 2019 were included. Preoperative CTs were reviewed, blinded from surgical and pathological data, by two radiologists. Diagnostic accuracy and interobserver reliability analysis were performed. We included 45 patients (mean age: 61 years (28-84 years); 23 men). The CT sensitivity to identify the mesenteric mass was 97% (37/38) with a
