Comparison of Blumgart versus conventional duct-to-mucosa anastomosis for pancreaticojejunostomy after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Article in Annals of hepato-biliary-pancreatic surgery, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 3 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUNDS/
aimsPancreatic leakage is a major cause of postoperative death and morbidity after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). A recent study introduced Blumgart anastomosis (BA), which minimizes severe complications after PD. This study compares BA with conventional anastomosis (CA) for pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) after PD at a single institution.
methodsA total of 87 patients who underwent PD at our hospital between January 2003 and October 2015 were enrolled in this study. The patients were divided into two groups according to the anastomosis type. Of them, 44 patients underwent anastomosis using CA (group A, conventional duct-to-mucosa anastomosis) and 43 underwent anastomosis using BA (group B, Blumgart anastomosis).
resultsThere was a significant difference in duration of the operation between groups A and B (473.1±102.0 versus 386.4±58.5 min,
conclusionsThe results of this study suggest that BA-type PJ is not inferior to CA-type PJ in terms of postoperative complications.
