Hepatic Arterial Variations and Its Implication During Pancreatic Cancer Surgeries.
Review 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 6 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
purposeAberrant hepatic artery anatomy is a considerable challenge during pancreatic surgery as it warrants extreme caution for the preservation of vascular supply as well as achievement of R0 resection margin.
methodWe reviewed the literature about the aberrant anatomical variations of the hepatic artery and its relevance during pancreatoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy.
resultPreoperative deliberation of peri-pancreatic vascular anatomy using advanced imaging methods is crucial for surgeons. At the same time, intra-operative suspicion and early identification of aberrant anatomy may help to prevent vascular injury and related complications. Yet, vascular reconstruction may be needed in many situations; several techniques like pre-operative embolization provide new options for management in specific situations.
conclusionWe have provided here an overview of the anatomical variants of the hepatic artery and their implication during pancreatoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy.
