A modified pancreaticojejunostomy anastomotic technique using double U-sutures for laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Article in Updates in surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Although recent advances in laparoscopic technology have popularized laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy (LPD), laparoscopic pancreaticojejunostomy anastomosis (PJA) still presents a major technical challenge. From February 2021 to January 2023, 42 patients underwent LPD with modified double U-suture PJA. Data on the demographic characteristics and clinical results of these patients were investigated. The median operation time was 316 min (249-596 min). The median PJA time was 32 min (25-40 min). The median intraoperative blood loss was 150 mL (50-500 mL). The median postoperative stay was 12 days (7-30 days). Complications occurred in 10 (23.8%) patients, including two cases (4.8%) of delayed gastric emptying and nine cases (21.4%) of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). One patient presented delayed gastric emptying and POPF. Eight patients (19.0%) experienced biochemical leakage, and one patient (2.4%) had grade B POPF. Laparoscopic double U-suture PJA is a feasible and safe technique for performing LPD.
