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

purposeThis study aimed to investigate the risk factors for re-drainage in patients with early drain removal after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).

methodsThis study retrospectively analyzed 114 patients who underwent PD and prophylactic drain removal on postoperative day (POD) 4 between January 2012 and March 2021. We analyzed the risk factors for re-drainage according to various factors. Peri-pancreaticojejunostomic fluid collection (PFC) index and pancreatic cross-sectional area (CSA) were evaluated using computed tomography on POD 4. The PFC index was calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height at the maximum aspect.

resultsAmong the 114 patients, 15 (13%) underwent re-drainage due to postoperative pancreatic fistula. Multivariate analysis identified a PFC index ≥ 8.16 cm

conclusionA careful decision might be necessary for early drain removal in patients with a PFC index ≥ 8.16 cm
