Transcatheter arterial embolization with N-butyl cyanoacrylate for postoperative hemorrhage treatment following pancreatoduodenectomy.

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
purposePostoperative hemorrhage (PPH) is a severe complication of pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) with a mortality rate of 5-20.2% and mortality due to hemorrhage of 11-58%. Transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) has been widely recommended for PPH, however, TAE with N-butyl cyanoacrylate (NBCA) for PPH treatment has been reported rarely. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of TAE with NBCA for PPH treatment following PD.
methodsThis retrospective study included 14 male patients (mean age, 60.93 ± 10.97 years) with postoperative hemorrhage following PD treated with TAE using NBCA as the main embolic agent from October 2019 to February 2022. The clinical data, technical and success rate, and complications were analyzed.
resultsAmong the 14 patients who underwent TAE, the technical and clinical success rates were 100 and 85.71%, respectively. Angiography revealed contrast extravasation in 12 cases and a pseudoaneurysm in 3 cases. One patient developed a serious infection and died 2 days after the TAE.
conclusionTAE with NBCA for PPH treatment following PD, especially for massive hemorrhage caused by a pancreatic fistula, biliary fistula, or inflammatory corrosion, can result in rapid and effective hemostasis with high safety.
