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

Background: Mixed neuroendocrine non-neuroendocrine neoplasms (MiNENs) are rare tumors of the gastrointestinal tract with neuroendocrine and non-neuroendocrine components. Ampullary MiNENs are extremely rare, with few cases reported to date. Case Report: A 41-year-old male was diagnosed incidentally with a dilated common bile duct and intrahepatic biliary radicles while being evaluated for right ureteric calculi. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan of the abdomen showed a mass in the ampullary region with a positive double duct sign. Side-viewing endoscopy indicated an ampullary growth, and biopsy confirmed adenocarcinoma. The patient underwent total robotic pancreatoduodenectomy with an uneventful postoperative course. His final histopathologic examination revealed a tumor with 2 components, each of which accounted for at least 30% of the tumor: a neuroendocrine tumor and an adenocarcinoma with signet ring cells. The patient received adjuvant chemotherapy and at 1-year follow-up showed no evidence of recurrence. Conclusion: Ampullary MiNENs are rare composite gastroenteropancreatic tumors characterized by histologic heterogeneity; they can be effectively treated with robotic pancreatoduodenectomy. The more aggressive component of the MiNEN should be considered when determining an adjuvant therapy.
