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

We report a rare case of synchronous multifocal pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) discovered incidentally during histopathological examination of a pancreatic adenocarcinoma. A 65-year-old female patient with right upper abdominal pain, jaundice, and weight loss was diagnosed with a periampullary adenocarcinoma. Imaging revealed a soft tissue lesion in the periampullary region, and a Whipple procedure was performed. Histological examination identified a moderately differentiated pancreaticobiliary adenocarcinoma and multiple foci of well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumors (NETs). Immunohistochemistry confirmed distinct tumor types, with adenocarcinoma showing CK7 positivity and NET positive for synaptophysin, chromogranin, and low Ki-67. This case highlights the diagnostic challenge of synchronous malignancies and underscores the importance of thorough histopathologic evaluation.
