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
backgroundNeo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) represents one of the current research hotspots in the field of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The aim of this study is to evaluate the prognostic value of NAC in patients with borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC) followed by pancreatectomy with portal vein (PV) resection and reconstruction with venous allograft (VAG).
methodsMedical records of patients with BPRC who underwent pancreatectomy with concomitant PV resection and reconstruction with VAG between April 2013 and March 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Outcomes of patients with and without NAC (NAC, Group 1 vs. non-NAC, Group 2) were compared with focus on R0 resection rates, morbidity, and survival.
resultsOf the 77 patients with pancreatectomy, PV resection and reconstruction with VAG were identified. Overall survival (OS) rates of 0.5-, 1-, and 2-year were 80.5%, 59.7%, and 31.2%, respectively (median survival time, MST, 14 months). Of these, 24 patients (Group 1) underwent operation following received NAC, and the remaining 53 patients did not (Group 2). The R0 resection rate of vascular margin was 100% vs. 84.9% (
conclusionNAC might improve the R0 resection rate and POPF in patients with BRPC who underwent pancreatectomy with concomitant PV resection and reconstruction with VAG. Survival benefit exists in patients with BRPC who received NAC before pancreatectomy. Postoperative chemotherapy also had a favorable effect on OS of BRPC patients. Elevated CA 19-9 serum level is associated with poor prognosis, even after NAC-combining operation.
