Predictors of post-operative pancreatic fistula formation in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors: A national surgical quality improvement program analysis.
Article in American journal of surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundPost-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a serious complication following pancreas surgery. We aimed to establish factors associated with POPF specifically in patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET).
methodsThe 2014-2018 American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was querried for patients undergoing resection for PNET. The impact of patient, tumor, and operative factors on POPF formation was evaluated.
results3532 patient underwent resections for PNET. The POPF rate was significantly higher in patients with PNET (24.8%) versus non-PNET (16.4%) (p < 0.0001). Male sex (OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.11-1.89), enucleation (OR 3.14, 95% CI 1.10-8.98), pancreaticoduodenectomy (OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.13-2.03), small duct size <3 mm (OR 3.24, 95% CI 1.62-6.48), and soft gland texture (OR 1.81, 95% CI 1.18-2.77) were independently associated with POPF in PNET patients on multivariable analysis.
conclusionsPOPF is more common in patients undergoing resection for PNET and is dictated primarily by surgical approach and gland characteristics.
