Osteomyelitis as a Result of Pancreaticojejunostomy Stent Migration after Whipple Procedure.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Pancreaticoduodenectomy, or Whipple procedure, is a high-risk surgical procedure commonly performed for tumors of the pancreatic head. The pancreatico-enteric anastomosis is an important component of this procedure. The maturation and adequate healing of this anastomotic site is critical to decrease the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistulas. The use of stents can help in the healing of this anastomotic site. We present a patient with pancreatic adenocarcinoma who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy, and presented with progressively worsening lumbar pain 7 years later. The patient was found to have osteomyelitis as a complication from an entero-spinal fistula secondary to a migrated pediatric feeding tube that was placed at the pancreaticojejunal anastomosis.
