Migration of Internal Pancreaticojejunostomy Stents into the Bile Ducts in Patients Undergoing Pancreatoduodenectomy.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 13 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
purposeTo investigate the incidence, complications, and risk factors of the migration of internal pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) stents into the bile ducts in patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy.
methodsPostoperative computed tomography (CT) and clinical data of 802 patients with CT-detectable internal PJ stents were reviewed to assess the occurrence of stent migration into the bile ducts and stent-induced complications with their clinical significance. Risk factors for stent migration and stent-induced complications were determined.
resultsStent migration into the bile ducts occurred in 135 patients (16.8 %); 40 of these (29.6 %) showed stent-induced complications including bile duct stricture, stone, and liver abscess. Clinically significant complications were identified in only eight patients. Neither the stent length nor diameter was associated with stent migration. A small stent diameter, peripheral location of the stent, absence of stent remigration from the bile ducts to the intestine, and longer stent retention time in the bile ducts were risk factors of stent-induced complications.
conclusionsThe incidence of internal PJ stent migration into the bile ducts was 16.8 %. Migrated stents frequently caused complications, although they were mostly subclinical. Stent-induced complications were associated with stent diameter and location, stent remigration to the intestine, and stent retention time in the bile ducts.
