Is duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy necessary after pancreaticoduodenectomy: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT07038161 (Duct To Mucosa Pancreaticojejunostomy), which is not on this map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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.

Abstract
The incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula is influenced by the effectiveness of the pancreaticojejunostomy, and the most suitable pancreaticojejunostomy for pancreaticoduodenectomy remains uncertain. Since grade A postoperative pancreatic fistula is no longer considered a true fistula, the purpose of this meta-analysis was to compare the effectiveness of duct-to-mucosa anastomosis and invagination anastomosis in reducing the incidence of grade B/C postoperative pancreatic fistula. The meta-analysis was conducted using software Review Manager 5.3, and the fixed-effect model was employed for pooled statistic calculations. The Cochrane Collaboration Risk of Bias Tool was utilized for quality assessment. Ten randomized controlled trials from Embase, Web of Science, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Library (1990.01-2022.10) including 1471 patients, met the inclusion criteria. This meta-analysis has been registered on PROSPERO with the registration number CRD42023491673. The incidence of grade B/C fistula was significantly lower in the invagination group (7.7 %) compared to the duct-to-mucosa group (12.8 %, mostly Cattell manner)(RR = 1.65, 95%CI: 1.14-2.39, P = 0.008; heterogeneity: P = 0.008, I
