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

purposeWe categorize the subtypes of the replaced common hepatic artery (RCHA) and evaluate the clinical implications.

methodsThirty-four cases of the RCHA were evaluated retrospectively using multidetector computed tomography. We categorized them into the three RCHA subtypes according to pancreatic penetration and the passing routes. The distance between the orifice of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and RCHA bifurcation (D SMA-RCHA) was measured using advanced 3D imaging software. Analysis of variance was used to evaluate the difference in D SMA-RCHA according to the RCHA subtype.

resultsType A (n = 17, 50 %) referred to RCHA penetrating the pancreatic parenchyma, all crossing the dorsal aspect of the superior mesenteric vein (SMV). Among them, three cases were accompanied by the circumportal pancreas. Type B (n = 10, 29 %) referred to RCHA without penetration of the pancreatic parenchyma and crossing of the dorsal aspect of the main portal vein (MPV) or SMV. Type C (n = 7, 21 %) referred to RCHA without penetration of the pancreas parenchyma and crossing of the ventral aspect of the MPV or SMV. The mean D SMA-RCHA of each subtype was as follows: type A, 3.13 cm [95 % confidence interval (CI) 2.70-3.57]; type B, 2.04 cm [95 % CI 1.40-2.68]; and type C, 2.14 cm [95 % CI 2.23-2.92]. The D SMA-RCHA of the penetrating pancreatic parenchyma of the RCHA was significantly longer than that of the non-penetrating pancreatic parenchyma (P = 0.007).

conclusionHalf of RCHA show penetrating the pancreatic parenchyma, which was categorized as type A, and this type A takes off from the SMA more distally than RCHA without intrapancreatic penetration.
