Postoperative pancreatic fistula after distal pancreatectomy for non-pancreas retroperitoneal tumor resection.
Article in American journal of surgery, 2020. 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
introductionShort-term outcomes after distal pancreatectomy (DP) for retroperitoneal (RP) tumors are unknown. We sought to identify rates of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and morbidity after en bloc DP with RP tumor resection.
methodsA retrospective review of 43 patients who underwent DP with RP tumor resection (1/2011-12/2017) was performed.
resultsSeventeen patients had RP sarcoma, 12 renal cell carcinoma, 11 gastrointestinal stromal tumor, and 3 adrenocortical carcinoma. Grade III-IV complications occurred in 7 patients. Grade B POPF occurred in 14 patients, grade C POPF in none, and biochemical leak in 6. Of 22 patients who developed radiographically evident peri-pancreatic fluid collections, 7 required percutaneous drainage. The 90-day readmission rate was 33%.
conclusionsDP with RP tumor resection is associated with high rates of clinically relevant POPF compared to historical results for DP for primary pancreatic tumors. Multi-center studies to identify targetable predictors and risk mitigation strategies for POPF in this rare high-risk population are needed.
