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

This study aimed to evaluate the optimal extent of lymphadenectomy in patients with nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms. We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological data of patients with nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms who underwent surgical resection. We investigated the frequency of metastases at each lymph node station according to tumor location and analyzed the factors contributing to poor overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS). Overall, data of 84 patients were analyzed. Among patients with pancreatic head tumors, metastases at stations 8, 13, and 17 were found in one (3.1%), four (12.5%), and three (9.3%) patients, respectively. However, none of the other stations showed metastases. For pancreatic body and tail tumors, metastases only at station 11 were found in two (5.1%) patients. Additionally, multivariate DFS and OS analyses showed that lymph node metastasis was the only independent prognostic factor. In conclusion, lymph node metastasis near the primary tumor was the only independent factor of poor prognosis in patients with nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms after undergoing curative surgery. Peri-pancreatic lymphadenectomy might be recommended for nonfunctioning pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms.
