Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors: Does Tumor Location Affect Prognosis?
Article in Archives of Iranian medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundGastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) are rare entities. Generally, they can be localized anywhere in the gastrointestinal or hepatobiliary tract. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the effect of tumor location on prognosis in patients with GEP-NET undergoing surgery. Our secondary objective is to examine other factors affecting the prognosis of patients with GEP-NET.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed data from 30 patients with GEP-NET who underwent surgery in the General Surgery Clinic between 2012 and 2022. The gNET group (n=18) included tumors located in the gastrointestinal tract, while the pNET group (n=12) included tumors located in the hepatopancreatobiliary system. Surgical, laboratory, radiological, and pathological findings of the patients, as well as follow-up outcomes were recorded and statistically analyzed.
resultsIn subgroup comparison, tumor size was found to be larger in the pNET group (
conclusionThere was no statistically significant difference in survival outcomes between the GEP-NET groups located in the gastrointestinal tract and the hepatopancreatobiliary system.
