Cross-fellowship Inter-institutional Exchange: Answering the Call for Hepatopancreatobiliary Training Standardization.
Article in Journal of surgical education, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveGeneral surgery trainees interested in performing hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) surgery can choose from multiple fellowship pathways, namely HPB, surgical oncology (SO), and abdominal transplant-HPB (TXP-HPB). Although focused on similar operations, each program offers distinct clinical and technical emphases.
designAn annual inter-institutional exchange between TXP-HPB and SO fellowships, starting in 2014. SETTING AND
participantsTXP-HPB fellows from Washington University in St. Louis (WUSTL) and SO fellows from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC).
resultsAbout 14 fellows have participated in the exchange so far, 13 of whom responded to our survey. At MSKCC, TXP-HPB fellows performed a median of 24 cases, including 6 major pancreatic resections, 3 major hepatectomies, 4 hepatic artery infusion pump insertions, and 1 major biliary case. At WUSTL, SO fellows performed a median of 16 cases, including 5 liver transplants, 2 major pancreatic resections, 2 major hepatectomies, and 2 major biliary cases. About 92.3% of respondents stated they would repeat the rotation, with SO fellows emphasizing the exposure to vascular anastomoses and transplant-HPB fellows appreciating the oncologic focus.
conclusionsA monthlong inter-institutional exchange offers a unique opportunity to standardize and improve HPB education.
