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

Laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (LPD) is increasingly performed worldwide as an alternative to the open conventional method, with the aim of advancing recovery. Because of its recent introduction, little is known about late surgical complications from this procedure. Here, we describe a case of a 76-year-old woman who underwent LPD with end-to-side gastrojejunostomy and presented with pain in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen 6 months thereafter. CT showed signs of an internal herniation. Elective diagnostic laparoscopy demonstrated a hernia of the efferent loop in Petersen's space. The loop was repositioned and Petersen's space was closed. The patient was discharged on the same day. Apart from a short readmission for nausea and vomiting, which were managed conservatively, the patient recovered without any further complications. Internal herniation should be considered in patients with abdominal complaints following LPD.
