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

backgroundHepatopancreatoduodenectomy is performed to achieve curative resection of malignant biliary tumors.1 However, the morbidity and mortality associated with this challenging surgical procedure remain high, and optimal indications remain unclear.2 PATIENT: A 75-year-old man with a medical history of cholecystectomy presented with obstructive jaundice. Magnetic resonance colangiopancreatography and computed tomography scan showed diffuse biliary dilation with mild enhancing nodularities in the whole extrahepatic bile duct. Cholangioscopy with biopsies proved cholangiocarcinoma arising from BP at the prepapillary common bile duct (CBD) and the biliary confluence. The second-order right ducts were free of disease. The patient underwent nasobiliary drainage and was considered for hepatopancreatoduodenecomy. TECHNIQUE: A right subcostal incision was performed. Intraoperative ultrasound showed BP of the intrapancreatic CBD spreading only to the left bile duct. En bloc resection of the left liver, caudate lobe, and CBD was performed together with pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy. The reconstruction phase was performed on a single-loop by duct-to-mucosa pancreatojejunostomy, two-duct biliojejunostomy with mucosa-to-mucosa alignment, and duodenojejunostomy. Transanastomotic external stents were used for biliary and pancreatic drainage. Histopathologic examination confirmed foci of cholangiocarcinoma arising from BP. Resection margins were negative. Lymph node metastasis, microvascular invasion, perineural invasion, and mucin secretion were absent. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 14 without complications. At the 2-year follow-up assessment, he was alive and free of disease.

conclusionCholangiocarcinoma arising from BP is a proper indication for hepatopancreatoduodenectomy. The long-term oncologic benefits might outweigh the possible perioperative complications.5
