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

Gastric duplication cysts (GDCs) are rare congenital anomalies that can closely resemble other cystic abdominal lesions, particularly pancreatic pseudocysts. We present the case of a 4-year-old girl with progressive abdominal distension, pain, and elevated serum amylase levels. Initial imaging including an abdominal ultrasound, contrast-enhanced computed tomography, and endoscopic ultrasound, suggested a pancreatic pseudocyst, resulting in an endoscopic cystogastrostomy and stent placement. However, post-procedure magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography revealed a thick-walled cyst with an inner mucosal lining, raising suspicion for a GDC. Surgical excision confirmed the diagnosis, and the patient had an uneventful recovery. This case highlights the diagnostic challenge of differentiating GDCs from pancreatic pseudocysts due to overlapping clinical and imaging features.
