Mixed Neuroendocrine and Non-neuroendocrine Tumor of Pancreato-Biliary Origin Treated Successfully with Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy.

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
purposeMixed neuroendocrine and non-neuroendocrine neoplasms (MiNENs) are rare neoplasms composed of morphologically distinguishable neuroendocrine (NE) and non-neuroendocrine components, each representing at least 30% of the tumor volume. The NE component must be substantiated by immunohistochemistry. MiNENs generally have a poor prognosis, with a more aggressive component dictating overall survival and prognosis. Owing to its rarity, there are no specific validated treatment guidelines available for these tumors, and they are generally treated with surgery if possible. However, surgically unresectable or advanced tumors are generally treated with chemotherapy.
methodsWe report a case of an elderly woman who was referred to the neuroendocrine tumor (NET) unit following incidental findings of liver lesions found on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) performed for an asymptomatic heart murmur. Histology from the liver biopsy revealed MiNEN with up to 60% grade 2 (Ki67: 19%) well-differentiated NET and up to 30% well-differentiated to moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma of possible pancreato-biliary origin; intrahepatic ductal primary could not be excluded. Her 18-fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) revealed no FDG-avid lesions, and a
resultsShe was started on lanreotide 120 mg every 28 days for 6 months, with no response to the treatment. Subsequently, the patient was treated with four cycles of
conclusionPRRT is currently not used in treatment protocols for the management of MiNENs; however, it could be considered a treatment option in patients with MiNENs, where there is a predominant component of well-differentiated NETs with
