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

backgroundThe TRIANGLE operation involves the removal of all tissues within the triangle bounded by the portal vein-superior mesenteric vein, celiac axis-common hepatic artery, and superior mesenteric artery to improve patient prognosis. Although previously promising in patients with locally advanced pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), data are limited regarding the long-term oncological outcomes of the TRIANGLE operation among resectable PDAC patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).

aimTo evaluate the safety of the TRIANGLE operation during PD and the prognosis in patients with resectable PDAC.

methodsThis retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent PD for pancreatic head cancer between January 2017 and April 2023, with or without the TRIANGLE operation. Patients were divided into the PD

resultsThe PD

conclusionThe TRIANGLE operation is safe for PDAC patients undergoing PD. Moreover, it reduces the local recurrence rate of PDAC and may improve survival in patients who receive adequate adjuvant chemotherapy.
