Feasibility of preserving the remnant stomach during distal pancreatectomy after distal gastrectomy.
Article in Surgery today, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeThe safety and feasibility of preserving the remnant stomach during distal pancreatectomy (DP) in patients who have undergone distal gastrectomy (DG) remains unclear.
methodsA retrospective review of a prospectively maintained database was performed to identify patients who underwent DP. A propensity score-matched analysis was performed to match post-DG patients with control patients.
resultsAmong the 226 patients included in this study, 9 DP patients who had a history of DG were studied (4.0%). These nine patients in the DG group were matched to 45 patients in the control group. There were no significant differences in the incidence of postoperative morbidities, including postoperative pancreatic fistula rate or stomach-related complications. The hemoglobin A1C (HbA1c) levels in the DG group after surgery decreased to the normal range.
conclusionOur study suggested that the remnant stomach may be safely preserved when performing DP in patients with a history of DG with respect to short-term morbidities. However, there are some concerns about the long-term nutritional status in patients with a history of DG.
