An Unusual Cause of Chronic Back Pain: Solid Pseudopapillary Neoplasm of the Pancreas.
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
Solid pseudopapillary neoplasms (SPNs) are rare, low-grade malignant tumors of the pancreas comprising 1%-2% of pancreatic neoplasms. Predominantly affecting young women, these tumors are typically slow-growing and often discovered incidentally during imaging for non-specific symptoms. This case describes a young female patient who presented with acute-onset back pain without prior significant medical history or trauma. Initial evaluation suggested a musculoskeletal etiology; however, persistent symptoms prompted further imaging, which revealed a pancreatic mass. Subsequent diagnostic workup, including cross-sectional imaging and histopathological analysis, confirmed the diagnosis of an SPN of the pancreas. The patient underwent surgical resection with a favorable postoperative recovery. This case highlights the atypical presentation of SPN as isolated back pain and underscores the importance of maintaining a broad differential diagnosis when evaluating persistent, unexplained pain in young patients.
