Emergency Pancreatoduodenectomy for Ampullary Cancer Post-Iatrogenic Duodenal Perforation: No Option but to Strike.
Article in Cureus, 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
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiography related duodenal perforation is an infrequent complication and associated with significant morbidity. The management of such perforations, especially in the setting of malignancy, is not standardized given the paucity of literature. We encountered a patient who was diagnosed with periampullary carcinoma and had a perforation in the duodenum during endoscopy. Emergency pancreatoduodenectomy (EPD) was performed considering it to be a resectable disease with minimal contamination. He had a prolonged hospital course due to surgical site infection and hepaticojejunostomy leak, however, which was managed successfully. At one year follow up, he is healthy with no evidence of recurrence. We conclude that EPD can be attempted for selected iatrogenic duodenal perforations with co-existent resectable malignancy in a stable patient. It may help to avoid the morbidity of a second surgery in the setting of a distorted anatomy and simultaneously preventing the probable upstaging of disease due to peritoneal seedling.
