Prevalence of dysglycemia and associated risk factors in patients with pancreatic benign and low-grade malignant tumors before pancreatic surgery: A prospective observational study.
Observational study in Frontiers in endocrinology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: Pancreatic benign and low-grade malignant tumors (PBLMT) have experienced a rapid increase in incidence rates worldwide. Few studies have focused on the glucose metabolism status of patients with PBLMT before pancreatic surgery. Methods: From August 2017 to June 2018, 70 patients with PBLMT were prospectively screened for abnormalities in glucose metabolism by an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) before pancreatic surgery. Patients were classified as having normal glucose tolerance (NGT), prediabetes mellitus (pre-DM), or new-onset DM (NOD) according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria. Glucose metabolism indices were calculated based on the OGTT parameters. Tumor volume and remnant pancreatic volume (RPV) were measured by computed tomography. Results: Forty-nine of 70 patients with PBLMT developed dysglycemia (pre-DM and NOD). RPV was smaller in the pre-DM (57.44 ± 18.20 cm Conclusion: In patients with PBLMT, 70% had dysglycemia before surgery. Old age and a reduction in RPV were independent risk factors for developing dysglycemia before pancreatic surgery. The decisions to treat PBLMT with resection should hinge more on the risk of dysglycemia as well as potential malignancy.
