147 Pancreatoduodenectomies: a Single Center's Perspective into the Epidemiology and Surgical Outcomes of Periampullary and Pancreatic Cancers in South India.
Observational study in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is the only curative procedure for resectable periampullary cancers. This study aims to survey the various outcome variables of the procedure at our institute, which is in the early process of evolving into a high-volume center for PDs.
methodsData of patients, who underwent PDs, was collected retrospectively from January 2010 to December 2017 and prospectively from January 2018 to December 2019. Various preoperative, intraoperative, and histopathological parameters were compared with the outcome variables-morbidity and mortality rates.
resultsA total of 147 patients underwent PDs over the last decade. From January 2010 to December 2014 (period A), 29 patients underwent PD, while 118 patients underwent PD from January 2015 to December 2019 (period B). Clinically relevant (CR) delayed gastric emptying (44.8% vs 23.7%), CR post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (37.9% vs 18.6%), and blood loss (850 ml (400-5300 ml) vs 600 ml (150-2500 ml)) improved in period B with no improvement in CR postoperative pancreatic fistula (20.7% vs 28.8%). The rates of SSI (63.6%), pulmonary complications (29.9%), and mean postoperative stay (19.87 ± 11.59 days) were found to be higher than most of the major centers. Mortality rates decreased significantly from 27.6% in period A to 10.2% in period B (p = 0.029). Median overall survival was 30 months (95% CI 20.76-39.23 months)
conclusionOver the last decade, there has been a significant improvement in the mortality rate, but morbidity remains high and must be looked into as the department enters the new decade as a young high-volume center.
