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

The aim of this retrospective study was thus to evaluate postoperative morphological changes in the remnant pancreas after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) associated with postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Fifty-one patients subjected to PD were enrolled in the study and allocated into 2 groups according to the presence (n = 16) or absence of POPF (n = 35). A morphological evaluation of the pancreas was conducted for up to a 20 months follow-up on CT scans and compared between groups. No significant differences were observed in morphology between the groups at the different preoperative and PO intervals, regardless of the clinical relevance of the POPF or POPF grade. However, in the overall patient analysis we observed a significant reduction of the entire pancreas over time. In fact, thickness decreased 0.4 mm/month, length 1.2 mm/month and volume 1.17 cm
