Diagnostic Challenges in Autoimmune Pancreatitis: A Case of Progressive Painless Jaundice With an Uncertain Etiology.
Article in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a rare cause of pancreatitis compared with more common etiologies such as gallstone or alcohol-related pancreatitis. In this report, we present the case of a 61-year-old man with no significant past medical history who presented with progressive, painless jaundice. His non-specific clinical presentation was compatible with a broad differential diagnosis, initially raising concern for malignant biliary obstruction. Ultimately, endoscopic ultrasound with tissue biopsy was required to establish the diagnosis of AIP, highlighting the diagnostic challenges posed by this uncommon entity.
