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

The altered anatomy in patients after bariatric surgery who have undergone a Roux-en-Y gastric bypass may pose a technical challenge for surgical removal of the pancreatic head. We treat patients with pancreas cancer with multimodality therapy in a neoadjuvant fashion followed by pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). In patients with Roux-en-Y gastric bypass anatomy, the gastric remnant is preserved and used for pancreaticogastrostomy reconstruction and subsequently drained by the same jejunal limb used for the hepaticojejunostomy. This method of reconstruction takes advantage of the previous surgically altered anatomy and avoids the morbidity of a gastric remnant resection at the time of PD.
