Ectopic Insulinoma in the Pyloric Antrum Portion of the Stomach: A Case Report and Review of the Associated Diagnostic Challenges.
Review in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2026. 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
Ectopic insulinomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors that present with diagnostic challenges because of their atypical location. We report the case of a 64-year-old woman with recurrent hypoglycemia caused by an insulinoma originating from the gastric pyloric antrum. The diagnosis was confirmed through clinical assessment, biochemical testing, imaging studies, and a histopathological examination. Laparoscopic distal gastrectomy with D1 lymphadenectomy was performed to resolve the hypoglycemic episodes. This case highlights the importance of considering ectopic insulinomas in the differential diagnosis of unexplained cases of hypoglycemia, and it underscores the need for a multidisciplinary approach using advanced imaging and histopathological evaluations to make an accurate diagnosis and provide effective treatment.
