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.

2 · The registry

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

The technical complexity of robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) and lack of technical surgical standardization have slowed its widespread application. RPD is only routinely performed in a few highly specialized centers. This study describes in detail the standard steps and core techniques of an experienced robotic center in China. We took advantage of our single experience to provide a step-by-step technique and surgical video of our RPD standardized procedure. We divided RPD into 18 key steps. Demographics and perioperative outcomes of consecutive 20 patients who underwent the RPD standardized procedure were analyzed. For the 20 consecutive patients, the mean operative time was 253.6 min, and the median estimated blood loss was 210.0 mL. One patient required conversion to laparotomy due to the need for PV reconstruction. One patient had grade 3 complication. The median postoperative hospital stay was 11.0 days. No 90-day mortality was observed. By simplifying and optimizing the surgical techniques, the RPD procedure can be standardized and modeled to improve feasibility and repeatability.
