Long-term survival following hepatectomy, radiation, and chemotherapy for recurrent pancreatic carcinoma: a case report.

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
backgroundRecurrent pancreatic carcinoma (PC) is generally well known to have a poor prognosis. Cases in which multidisciplinary treatments have been remarkably effective are rare. CASE PRESENTATION: Herein, we reported a case of long-term survival following a combination of hepatectomy for a liver metastasis and radiation and chemotherapy for abdominal lymph node metastases after a curative pancreaticoduodenectomy for PC. A 51-year-old Japanese man underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy following a PC diagnosis in December 2011. After the surgery, the patient received 16 cycles of gemcitabine (GEM) adjuvant chemotherapy. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) after therapy with GEM (17 months after surgery) revealed a 1-cm nodule in the liver, for which the patient underwent partial hepatectomy in May 2013. Approximately 1 month after the hepatectomy, the patient underwent adjuvant chemotherapy using tegafur/gimeracil/oteracil (S-1) for 12 months. Approximately 1 year after the second surgery, an abdominal CT scan detected the abdominal lymph node metastases, for which the patient underwent radiation therapy. After the radiation therapy, combination therapy with 5-fluorouracil(5-FU)/leucovorin plus oxaliplatin or irinotecan was started in September 2014; 59 cycles of this chemotherapy have been administered up to the time of this report. At 67 months after the pancreaticoduodenectomy and 50 months after the hepatectomy, the patient has remained healthy with no relapse or recurrent lesions.
conclusionWe have managed a long-term survivor who underwent hepatectomy for liver metastasis and radiation therapy and chemotherapy for abdominal lymph node metastases after curative pancreaticoduodenectomy for PC.
