Article in Surgical case reports, 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
introductionWe report a case of a pregnant woman suffering from gastrointestinal bleeding and duodenal obstruction caused by a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) that required pancreaticoduodenectomy after an emergent cesarean section. CASE PRESENTATION: A pregnant woman at 37 weeks of gestation presented with vomiting and melena and was found to have severe anemia. Imaging revealed an 8-cm tumor in the pancreatic head associated with duodenal stenosis. She underwent an emergency cesarean section, resulting in the delivery of a healthy infant. Subtotal stomach-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy was performed 7 days after delivery. Histopathological findings confirmed the tumor as a GIST. Her lactation support was provided by a lactation consultant starting on POD 1. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on POD 10.
conclusionsThis case highlights the importance of flexible treatment decision-making based on maternal condition and tumor-related complications, together with multidisciplinary perinatal support in patients requiring major surgery shortly after delivery to minimize the duration of mother-infant separation.
