1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundTotal pancreatectomy (TP) with islet autotransplantation (IAT) is a highly selected treatment for severe pain associated with chronic pancreatitis (CP) after exhausting medical and endoscopic therapies. The effect of duration of CP on TP-IAT has not been clarified.

methodsRetrospective review of a consecutive cohort undergoing TP-IAT was performed. Patients were classified according to islet dose of <2500 IEQ/kg, 2500 to 5000 IEQ/kg, and >5000 IEQ/kg. Islet yield and metabolic outcomes were compared to disease duration of CP.

resultsA total of 76 CP patients underwent TP-IAT. Longer disease duration was associated with lower islet yield transplanted (Spearman's correlation = -0.24; p = 0.04) for total cohort. Highest absolute value of the coefficient was found in patients with hereditary CP when study subjects were classified by the etiology of CP (correlation = -0.72; p = 0.02). Higher islet yields were significantly associated with better metabolic outcomes (7.6 ± 1.1 vs 6.6 ± 1.1% of HbA1c post-TPIAT in patients with <2500 and >5000 IEQ/kg transplanted, respectively; p = 0.04).

conclusionsThe duration of CP could affect islet yield and metabolic outcomes. The time since the diagnosis of CP should be considered when selecting patients for islet autotransplantation.
