Surgery for locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma-is it only about the vessels?
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal oncology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an oligosymptomatic disease, that is usually diagnosed in an advanced tumor stage. Traditionally, only the small subset of patients with tumors that showed no signs of vascular infiltration and distant metastases proceeded to surgery-still the only curative therapeutic modality to date. The remaining majority of patients received palliative chemotherapy or chemoradiation, usually with gemcitabine monotherapy. While gemcitabine monotherapy results in improved survival compared to best supportive care, most patients still succumb to the disease under therapy in a relatively short amount of time. Over the last years and decades, paradigms have shifted in PDAC treatment and potent multidrug chemotherapy protocols, including gemcitabine plus nab-paclitaxel and FOLFIRINOX, result in sufficient downstaging of advanced tumors in many patients. In this context, more and more patients are eligible for exploration and often resection. In this review we discuss the current state of the art in the clinical management and surgical treatment of patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, including classifications of locally advanced and borderline disease and surgical strategies for extended resections. An emphasis is put on arterial and venous resections and their outcome. In the end, we discuss current gaps in the literature and propose directions future research endeavors should focus on.
