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

backgroundLocally advanced pancreatic tumors may require vascular reconstruction for complete resection. However, pancreatoduodenectomy with vascular resection (PDVR) remains a subject of debate due to increased complications.

methodsPatients were identified using the ACS NSQIP Participant User Data Files from 2014 to 2019.

resultsThe 30-day mortality rate was 2.7%; major complications occurred in 32.2%. There is an increasing trend of PDVR in patients requiring pancreatectomy. There were no significant differences in mortality between PDVR with vein, artery, or venous and arterial resections. High BMI and postoperative biliary stent were risk factors for early complications. High BMI and COPD increased risk of early mortality. Chemotherapy and chemoradiotherapy were negative predictors for early morbidities and mortality, respectively.

conclusionThis study identifies the predictors of early morbidity and mortality in PDVR. The results of this study may assist decision making in perioperative management to optimize overall survival and guide additional research.
