A LASSO Cox Regression Predictive Model for Patients Undergoing Surgery for Pancreatic Body and Tail Adenocarcinoma Patients: Comparative Long-Term Survival Analysis of Radical Antegrade Modular Pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) and Standard Retrograde Pancreatosplenectomy (SPRS).
Article in Annals of surgical oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
purposeThis study was designed to assess the advantages of radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) over standard retrograde pancreatosplenectomy (SPRS) in terms of disease-free survival (DFS) by comparing clinical outcomes.
methodsClinical data from 154 patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital between January 2015 and August 2018 were collected. We compared the preoperative conditions, postoperative complications, and survival outcomes of patients who underwent two different surgical procedures. By creating a LASSO-Cox model, we determined the parameters affecting DFS and the risk ratios of the two surgical procedures on DFS.
resultsThe R0 resection rate (85.23% vs. 68.18%, P = 0.003), negative posterior margin rate (96.59% vs. 75.76%, P < 0.001), and tumor bed recurrence rate (15.29% vs. 40.00%, P = 0.001) significantly differed between the RAMPS and SPRS groups. The 1-, 3-, and 5-year survival and DFS rates of the RAMPS group were significantly better than those of the SPRS group (P < 0.05). Disease-free survival analysis based on Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that RAMPS was superior to SPRS (P < 0.001).
conclusionsWe recommend RAMPS as the preferred procedure for treating ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreatic body and tail due to its enhanced lymph node repair capacity and visualization of posterior pancreatic sections, which can increase DFS in patients.
