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

backgroundWhile distal pancreatectomy with celiac axis resection (DP-CAR) contributes to R0 resection for pancreatic body cancer, arterial blood flow to the liver from gastroduodenal artery is essential. However, in the presence of replaced right hepatic artery (r-RHA), extended DP-CAR (Ex-DP-CAR) in which the right edge of pancreatic resection includes the confluence of gastroduodenal artery (GDA) and proper hepatic artery (PHA) may be feasible. Herein, we report a patient with r-RHA and perform Ex-DP-CAR without reconstruction of PHA. CASE PRESENTATION: A 39-year-old man with pancreatic cancer, cT4N0M0 (UICC 8th), underwent DP-CAR after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). After laparotomy, unlike the evaluation in preoperative imaging, the tumor was found to invade the confluence of GDA and PHA. After confirmation of arterial blood flow to the liver, GDA and PHA was ligated and Ex-DP-CAR was completed with R0 margin status. The postoperative course was uneventful, with no recurrence 18 months after the surgery.

conclusionWe performed Ex-DP-CAR with resection of the confluence of GDA and PHA in the presence of r-RHA, which has a potential role in expanding the surgical indications for R0 resection by reducing the risk of ischemic complications without reconstruction of arterial blood supply to the liver.
