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.

Abstract

backgroundWrapping pancreatojejunal anastomosis with omentum to prevent postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) has only been reported in non-randomized, controlled trials. Therefore, this study aimed to conduct a randomized, controlled trial to compare outcomes between omental roll-up and non-omental roll-up in pancreatojejunal anastomosis.

methodsThis single-center, randomized, two-arm trail (Clinical Trials Register: NCT03083938) was conducted between February 2017 and February 2019. We studied 34 patients in the omental roll-up group and 34 patients in the non-omental roll-up group. The primary endpoint was the incidence of clinically relevant POPF. Thirty-day mortality and morbidity were recorded.

resultsPatients' demographic data were not significantly different between the two groups, except for histological diagnosis, with a significantly higher incidence of pancreatic cancer in the omental roll-up group (n = 15, 44.1%) than in the non-omental roll-up group (n = 9, 26.4%) (P = 0.042). There was one death in the non-omental roll-up group due to myocardial infarction. The incidence of POPF was not different between the omental roll-up group (n = 5, 14.7%) and non-omental roll-up group (n = 7, 20.6%) (P = 0.525). No differences were found in postoperative hemorrhage after pancreatectomy, delayed gastric emptying, and chyle leakage between the groups.

conclusionThis study shows that omental roll-up does not decrease the incidence of POPF after pancreatoduodenectomy.
