Pancreatic Cancer and Diabetes: Insights, Hypotheses, and Next Steps.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is frequently associated with new-onset diabetes (NOD) in adults aged ≥ 50 years. Accordingly, NOD may serve as an early clinical marker for PDAC, although the causal links remain incompletely defined. This review synthesises clinical and experimental evidence into an islet-centric view in which tumour-derived signals and microenvironmental changes impair β-cell insulin secretion and disrupt α- and δ-cell regulation. We distinguish findings established in PDAC from mechanisms inferred from islet physiology and systemic metabolism. Key uncertainties include the timing of systemic versus local drivers, the clinical relevance of tumour-derived signals in driving dysglycaemia, the status of endocrine cell signalling and endocrine-exocrine crosstalk, and the effects of microvascular and matrix changes on endocrine-vascular exchange. This synthesis highlights mechanisms that remain incompletely defined and prioritises areas for further research.
