Implantation of amniotic membrane over pancreatic anastomosis after pancreaticoduodenectomy: report of the first case.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis 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
The amniotic membrane (AM) has an increasing role as a scaffold for tissue repair due to its unique biological properties. The implantation of AM on pancreatic anastomosis after pancreaticoduodenectomy might improve the anastomotic healing and strengthen its structure, however has never been used in pancreatic surgery. We present the first application of AM after a pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed for a malignant tumor of the pancreatic head. After completing the pancreatic anastomosis, the AM was placed around the pancreatic anastomosis and fixed to it with single stiches. The AM, due to its physical characteristics, could be easily manipulated and adapted to the pancreatic anastomosis. This interesting and unique case shows that covering a pancreatic anastomosis with the AM is safe and technically feasible. The AM has no adverse effects while it may eventually provide a beneficial impact over the anastomotic healing.
