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

Isolated pancreatic tuberculosis (TB) is extremely uncommon. The combination of its low incidence and nonspecific clinical presentation presents a real diagnostic challenge and complicates management. The diagnosis of pancreatic TB is based on a combination of clinical, biological, and radiological findings, and most importantly, on histological evidence. We report a case of pseudotumoral pancreatic TB revealed by obstructive jaundice in a 48-year-old immunocompetent woman. The diagnosis was confirmed by the presence of small epithelioid and multinucleated giant cell granulomas with central caseous necrosis on biopsies of peripancreatic adenopathy obtained via endoscopic ultrasound. The patient was successfully treated with quadruple anti-tuberculous therapy.
