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

backgroundLate-onset biliary complications (LBC) after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) can be serious. This study aimed to clarify the frequency and risk factors of severe LBC after PD.

methodsWe defined LBC as biliary complications occurring 3 months after PD and severe LBC as cases that required intensive care. A total of 318 patients who underwent PD between 2010 and 2018 with at least 1 year of postoperative follow-up were evaluated.

resultsHospitalization for severe LBC was required in 59 patients (19%), of whom 20 had liver abscesses (6.3%); 18, acute cholangitis (5.7%); 12, biliary stones (3.8%); and 21, biliary strictures (6.6%). Interventional radiological or endoscopic treatment was required in 32 patients (10%), of whom 9 had a benign primary disease with biliary stones and/or strictures. Thirteen of the remaining 23 patients with a malignant primary disease had liver abscesses and cholangitis. Significant independent risk factors for severe LBC in patients with malignant primary disease were recurrence around the hepaticojejunostomy (odds ratio 6.5, P = 0.013) and chemotherapy (odds ratio 13.5, P < 0.001).

conclusionsSevere LBC after PD may occur regardless of whether the primary disease is benign or malignant. The course of severe LBC differs according to the primary disease, and therefore, appropriate follow-up and optimal treatment should be recommended according to the condition of the patient and the disease state.
