Postoperative pancreatic fistula after gastrectomy for gastric cancer.
Review in Annals of gastroenterological surgery, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05645198 (The Effect of Carboxymetyl Starch), which is not on this map. Cited by 22 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
Postoperative pancreatic fistula is one of the most severe complications after gastric cancer surgery, and can cause critical patient conditions leading to surgery-related death. Fortunately, the incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula after gastrectomy seems to be decreasing with changes in operative procedures. The rate was reported at about 30% after open gastrectomy with Appleby's method in 1997, but lately has improved below 1% for robotic gastrectomy in 2019. For the diagnosis of postoperative pancreatic fistula, drain amylase concentration has been demonstrated to be beneficial and some reports have proposed the optimal cut-off values of drain amylase to predict major postoperative pancreatic fistula. There have been many reports identifying risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistula, including overweight patients, pancreatic anatomy, blunt trauma from compression of the pancreas, and thermal injuries caused by the continuous use of energy devices. And importantly, laparoscopic gastrectomy has been shown to be more often associated with postoperative pancreatic fistula than open gastrectomy in the prospective national clinical database in Japan. Hence, further sophistication of surgical techniques to reduce pancreas compression would have great promise in reducing postoperative pancreatic fistula after laparoscopic gastrectomy.
