Prognostic Nomogram for patients undergoing radical Pancreaticoduodenectomy for adenocarcinoma of the pancreatic head.
Article in BMC cancer, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT05475275 (A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of the Effect of Different Pancreaticojejunostomy After Pancreaticoduodenectomy on Postoperative Pancreatic Fistula Based on the Position of the Pancreatic Duct in Pancreatic Section), which is not on this map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundRadical pancreaticoduodenectomy is the most common treatment strategy for patients diagnosed with adenocarcinoma of the pancreatic head. Few studies have reported the clinical characteristics and treatment efficacies of patients undergoing radical pancreaticoduodenectomy for adenocarcinoma of the pancreatic head.
methodsA total of 177 pancreatic head cancer patients who underwent radical pancreaticoduodenectomy and were pathologically confirmed as having pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma were screened in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University. The multivariate analysis results were implemented to construct a nomogram. The concordance index (c-index), the area under the curve (AUC) and calibration were utilized to evaluate the predictive performance of the nomogram.
resultsThe prognostic nutritional index (PNI), the lymph node ratio (LNR) and the American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging served as independent prognostic factors and were used to construct the nomogram. The c-indexes of the nomogram were 0.799 (confidence interval (CI), 0.741-0.858) and 0.732 (0.657-0.807) in the primary set and validation set, respectively. The AUCs of the nomogram at 1 and 3 years were 0.832 and 0.783, which were superior to the AJCC staging values of 0.759 and 0.705, respectively.
conclusionsThe nomogram may be used to predict the prognosis of radical resection for adenocarcinoma of the pancreatic head. These findings may represent an effective model for the developing an optimal therapeutic schedule for malnourished patients who need early effective nutritional intervention and may promote the treatment efficacy of resectable adenocarcinoma of the pancreatic head.
