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

purposePancreatic fistula following distal pancreatectomies still remains a relevant problem. The present study describes our first series with a new method of pancreatic remnant closure.

methodsA free fascia-peritoneum graft - harvested from the internal rectus sheet - was fixed onto the pancreatic stump by one circular stitch. The method was applied in 18 cases.

resultsThe postoperative hospital stay was 8 days in average. No clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) developed. The morbidity rate was 39%, mostly Clavien-Dindo Grade II types. There was no reoperation or mortality.

conclusionThe first series showed advantageous results with our method. Certainly, further studies are needed for the evaluation of this new and promising technique.
