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

By improving the techniques of pancreatic surgery, the mortality and morbidity for pancreatic carcinoma could be significantly reduced. For radiologists a profound knowledge of the surgical techniques is of decisive importance. Based on this knowledge postoperative complications can be reliably uncovered and local recurrences can be detected at an early stage. The complications resulting from pancreatic surgery can be severe and often necessitate a radiological intervention. As pancreatic cancer itself is a severe disease with a poor 5‑year survival, which can only be improved by an R0 resection, it is crucial to identify using imaging those patients who are primarily operable or who can potentially achieve an operable condition through neoadjuvant chemotherapy (borderline) and inoperable patients to avoid postoperative complications which would additionally weaken them and result in unnecessary delays in initiating palliative therapy. Thus, familiarity with the clinical criteria of resectability and also inoperability in pancreatic cancer nowadays represents an essential basic knowledge for every oncological radiologist.
