Distal Pancreatectomy
Review in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND/
aimLocally advanced pancreatic body tumors invading the celiac axis and the portal vein have been considered since long as unresectable lesions; however, due to improvement of surgical techniques, in certain cases surgery with curative intent might be taken in consideration. CASE REPORT: We present the case of a 48-year-old female investigated for epigastric pain that was diagnosed with a locally invasive pancreatic body tumor. The patient was submitted to computed tomography which revealed the presence of a locally advanced pancreatic tumor with no demarcation line with the celiac axis and the portal vein. The endoscopic ultrasound raised the suspicion of malignancy and retrieved a biopsy which demonstrated the presence of a pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The patient was submitted to surgery, distal pancreatectomy en bloc with splenectomy, celiac axis and portal vein resection was performed; the hepatic artery was reconstructed by placing a cadaveric graft while the portal vein was sutured per primam by an end to end anastomosis. The postoperative outcome was favorable, and the patient was discharged in the 10
conclusionMultiple vascular resections followed by reconstructions might be needed in order to achieve resection with negative margins in patients with pancreatic body tumors.
