Impact of Bile Exposure Time on Organ/space Surgical Site Infections After Pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
BACKGROUND/
aimOrgan/space surgical site infections (SSIs) are critical complications of pancreaticoduodenectomy. We investigated the impact of the time between division of the common hepatic duct and completion of biliary reconstruction [bile exposure (BE) time] on the occurrence of post-pancreaticoduodenectomy organ/space SSI. PATIENTS AND
methodsSixty-one patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy were retrospectively studied. The impact of perioperative variables and BE time on organ/space SSI occurrence was analyzed.
resultsOrgan/space SSIs occurred in 17 patients (28%). Patients were divided into two groups according to BE time. The incidence of organ/space SSIs was significantly higher in the long BE time group than in the short BE time group (42% versus 13%, p=0.0127). Multivariate analysis revealed that long BE times [odds ratio (OR)=4.8; p=0.0240] and soft pancreatic texture (OR=16.5; p=0.0106) were independent risk factors for organ/space SSIs.
conclusionLong BE time is a risk factor for post-pancreaticoduodenectomy organ/space SSIs. Shortening BE time may reduce organ/space SSI occurrence.
