Rare, Yet Targetable: New Perspectives on Ampullary Carcinomas.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Ampullary carcinoma (AC) is a rare gastrointestinal malignancy with dual intestinal and pancreatobiliary differentiation, complicating diagnosis, staging, and treatment. This review synthesizes current epidemiology, pathology, and multi-omic data to outline a pragmatic care pathway: lineage-first at presentation, mutation-fast at progression. Histology remains the primary classifier: the intestinal subtype generally aligns with colorectal regimens, whereas pancreatobiliary and mixed subtypes favor pancreaticobiliary therapy. In selected fit patients, modified FOLFIRINOX may address mixed phenotypes. Next-generation sequencing adds precision by identifying therapeutically relevant alterations, including
