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

purposeArterial involvement in advanced pancreatic cancer generally defines local unresectability. This study was aimed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of combined common hepatic arterial resection with pancreaticoduodenectomy or total pancreatectomy in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer involving the hepatic artery.

methodsOf 348 patients with pancreatic head cancers who underwent surgical resection between June 1999 and September 2015, 21 underwent combined common hepatic arterial resection with pancreaticoduodenectomy (17) or total pancreatectomy (4). Preoperative common hepatic arterial embolization was performed in 12 patients. Preoperative CT findings of hepatic arterial involvement, postoperative complications, survival rates, and prognostic factors for survival were analyzed. Twenty-one unresectable patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer who underwent laparotomy in this study period were selected as the control group.

resultsRates of pathological arterial invasion were significantly higher in patients with level III (>180

conclusionsCombined common hepatic arterial resection in pancreaticoduodenectomy or total pancreatectomy might be feasible with an acceptable rate of surgical complications, and may have a beneficial effect on the prognosis only in patients with low preoperative serum CA19-9 levels.
