Current Oncologic Standards for Surgery of Small Bowel Cancers.
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeThe last 2 decades has witnessed efforts towards standardization of surgery for small bowel cancers. The proposed recent guidelines/recommendations pertaining to choice of procedure and extent of lymphadenectomy are based on analysis of data from high volume centres of excellence. We evaluated whether these recently proposed oncologic recommendations can be replicated in the setting of single centre/team.
methodsThis was a retrospective analysis of consecutive adult patients (age ≥ 18 years) who underwent surgery for tumours of small intestine (duodenum, jejunum, and ileum) by the same team of surgeons from 01/01/2010 to 12/31/2019. The procedure performed and lymph nodes harvested during pathologic examination were compared with recent recommendations.
resultsOf the 32 patients (20 males and 12 females), mean age was 52.4 (range 31-77) years. Twenty-nine (90.6%) patients underwent surgery for small bowel cancers. Duodenum was the most common site, while NET was the commonest cancer. Whipple's procedure was performed for tumours of II part of duodenum, while for the rest, segmental resection was performed. The median number of lymph nodes examined for duodenal adenocarcinoma and NET was 14 and 9, respectively. For jejunal/ileal adenocarcinoma, median lymph node number examined was 11.
conclusionOur study shows that these recently proposed standards for surgery of small bowel cancers are achievable if basic principles of oncologic surgery are followed.
