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

purposeThis case report is to present the anatomical variation of ectopic pancreas and discuss about its clinical significance.

methodsWhile dissecting an adult cadaver specimen, an ectopic pancreas specimen was found.

resultsThe ectopic pancreatic tissue was located in the left lobe of the liver and the mesentery. After HE staining and microscopic observation, it was found that the ectopic pancreatic tissue contained ducts, islets, and acini, thus it was classified as Type I according to Gaspar Fuentes' classification.

conclusionWe report an atypical variation of ectopic pancreas, which is located in the left lobe of the liver and the mesentery. This may be associated with certain digestive system diseases such as dyspepsia. The findings of this study can provide insights for the clinical diagnosis of digestive system diseases.
