A novel surgical approach for en-bloc resection laparoscopic total pancreatectomy.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Laparoscopic total pancreatectomy (LTP) is technical challenging and rarely reported in the literature. Herein, we introduced a safe and feasible approach to perform LTP basing on our own experience.Over the period of July 2015 to August 2018, we performed 13 cases of LTP at our institution. Demographic characteristics, intraoperative and postoperative variables, and follow-up outcomes were prospectively collected. The surgical procedures were also described in this study.Seven male and six female patients were included in this study. The median age of the patients was 51 years (range 29-79 years). The median operative time was 355 minutes (range 300-470 minutes). The median estimated blood loss was 200 mL (range 50-1000 mL). The median postoperative hospital stay was 17 days (range 12-23 days). One patient suffered from bile leakage and another patient suffered from delayed gastric emptying. Both patients cured with conservative therapy.Laparoscopic total pancreatectomy can be safely and feasibly performed in well-selected patients.
