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

backgroundDespite new therapeutics, the prognosis for pancreatic cancer remains poor. Pancreatic surgery is a therapeutic option in non-metastatic forms. The consequences for renal function are poorly described.

methodsPatients who underwent surgery for pancreatic cancer between 1 January 2010 and 1 January 2017 and who experienced kidney biopsy in the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital were analysed.

resultsTwo hundred and ninety-four patients had pancreatic surgery during the period of analysis and five of them had a kidney biopsy (mean ± SD 20 months ±13.6 months after surgery) during the post-operative follow-up. Among these patients, three exhibited oxalate nephropathy (ON), indicating that the prevalence of ON in patients with pancreatectomy is at least 1%. ON may be insidious, with chronic renal failure without urinary abnormalities. All patients had a high oxalate-to-creatinine ratio in urine sample. Renal function improved after specific management of ON in two patients. Pancreaticoduodenectomy may represent a higher risk of ON than left pancreatectomy.

conclusionAlthough rare and underestimated, ON appears to be a real risk after pancreatic resection. Early detection may preserve renal function.
