MDCT evaluation of Dorsal Pancreatic Artery and Intrapancreatic arcade anatomy.

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
objectiveThe purpose of the study was to analyze the anatomy and variations in the origin of the dorsal pancreatic artery, greater pancreatic artery and to study the various types of arterial arcades supplying the pancreas on multidetector CT (MDCT).
methodsA retrospective analysis of 747 MDCT scans was performed in patients who underwent triple phase or dual phase CT abdomen between December 2020 and October 2022. Variations in origin of Dorsal pancreatic artery (DPA), greater pancreatic artery (GPA), uncinate process branch were studied. Intrapancreatic arcade anatomy was classified according to Roman Ramos et al. into 4 types-small arcades (type I), small and large arcades (type II), large arcades (type III) and straight branches (type IV).
resultsThe DPA was visualized in 65.3% (n = 488) of cases. The most common origin was from the splenic artery in 58.2% (n = 284) cases. The mean calibre of DPA was 2.05 mm (1.0-4.8 mm). The uncinate branch was seen in 21.7% (n = 106) with an average diameter of 1.3 mm. The greater pancreatic artery was seen in 57.3% (n = 428) predominantly seen arising from the splenic artery. The most common arcade anatomy was of Type II in 52.1% (n = 63) cases.
conclusionPancreatic arterial variations are not very uncommon in daily practice. Knowledge of these variations before pancreatic surgery and endovascular intervention procedure is important for surgeons and interventional radiologist.
