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

BACKGROUND/

aimPancreatic cancer is still associated with poor survival rates due to the fact that it is most often diagnosed at advanced stages of the disease when local invasion is present. However, improvements of surgical techniques have enabled extended resections with curative intent. We present the case of a 43-year-old patient diagnosed with locally invasive pancreatic adenocarcinoma invading the portal vein and the common hepatic artery. CASE REPORT: Surgery with curative intent consisting of pancreatoduodenectomy en bloc with hepatic artery resection and portal vein resection was successfully performed. The right hepatic artery was further anastomosed with the remaining common hepatic artery while the left hepatic artery was reconstructed using a reversed splenic artery patch. The continuity of the portal vein was re-established by placing a synthetic prosthesis.

conclusionCombined arterial and venous resections might be useful in order to achieve a good local control of disease in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer.
