Observational study in Gastroenterology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04662879 (A Prospective Study of Algorithm-based Screening in Patients With Glycemically Defined New Onset Diabetes to Evaluate Risk for and Earlier Detection of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma; Early Detection Initiative), which is not on this map.

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.

Abstract

BACKGROUND &

aimsThe increased 3-year incidence of pancreatic cancer after new-onset diabetes observed in retrospective studies needs prospective validation. It is unknown whether incidence varies by race and ethnicity.

methodsIn a prospective, observational study using active real-time surveillance of electronic health records, we identified 18,838 adults 50 years or older with glycemically defined new-onset diabetes (GNOD). In this interim analysis, we report 3-year Kaplan-Meier estimates of the proportion diagnosed with pancreatic cancer after GNOD (absolute incidence [95% CI]) and associated standardized incidence ratio (SIR) by race and ethnicity, overall 3-year incidence of pancreatic cancer adjusting for racial distribution of incident diabetes in the United States, and interval between GNOD and pancreatic cancer diagnosis.

resultsDuring median follow-up of 2.3 years, 82 pancreatic cancers were diagnosed (60% in men; mean [SD] age, 71 [8] years). The 3-year estimates for the proportion diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and associated SIR by race and ethnicity were as follows: non-Hispanic White patients (n = 6518): 0.84% (95% CI, 0.60%-1.07%) and 6.4 (95% CI, 4.8-8.4); Hispanic patients (n = 5984): 0.40% (95% CI, 0.20%-0.60%) and 4.2 (95% CI, 2.6-6.3); African American patients (n = 2192): 0.37% (95% CI, 0.07%-0.67%) and 2.4 (95% CI, 1.0-5.0), and Asian/Pacific Islander patients (n = 3360): 0.22% (95% CI, 0.06%-0.39%) and 3.0 (95% CI, 1.4-6.0). Overall, race-adjusted 3-year pancreatic cancer incidence was 0.62%. On average, GNOD occurred 8 months before clinical diagnosis (0-4 months in 30.5%, 4-12 months in 31.3%, 12-24 months in 19.5%, and 24-36 months in 18.7%).

conclusionsGNOD, identifiable in real time using active surveillance of electronic health records, is associated with a high 3-year incidence of pancreatic cancer with marked racial and ethnic differences. Longer-term risk needs further study.
