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.

Abstract

backgroundDespite advances in surgical techniques and care, pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) continues to have high morbidity and mortality rates. Complications such as sepsis, hemorrhage, pulmonary issues, shock, and pancreatic fistula are common postoperative challenges. A key concern in PD outcomes is the high incidence of infectious complications, especially surgical site infections (SSI) and postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). Bacteriobilia, or bile contamination with microorganisms, significantly contributes to these infections, increasing the risk of early postoperative complications. The occurrence of SSI in patients who undergo hepatobiliary and pancreatic (HPB) surgeries such as PD is notably higher than that in patients who undergo other surgeries, with rates ranging from 20 to 55%. Recent research by D'Angelica et al. revealed that, compared to cefoxitin, piperacillin/tazobactam considerably lowers the rate of postoperative SSI. However, these findings do not indicate whether extending the duration of antibiotic treatment is beneficial for patients at high risk of bacterial biliary contamination. In scenarios with a high risk of SSI, the specific agents, doses and length of antibiotic therapy remain unexplored. The advantage of prolonged antibiotic prophylaxis following PD has not been established through prospective studies in PD patients following biliary drainage.

methodsThis is an intergroup FRENCH-ACHBT-SFAR multicenter, open-labelled randomized, controlled, superiority trial comparing 2 broad-spectrum antibiotic (piperacillin/tazobactam) treatment modalities to demonstrate the superiority of 5-day postoperative antibiotic therapy to antibiotic prophylaxis against the occurrence of surgical site infections (SSI) following pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with preoperative biliary stents. The primary endpoint of this study is the overall SSI rate, defined according to the ACS NSQIP, as a composite of superficial SSI, deep incisional SSI, and organ/space SSI. In addition, we will analyze overall morbidity, antibiotic resistance profiles, the pathogenicity of bacteriological and fungal cocontamination, the impact of complications after bile drainage and neoadjuvant treatment on the bacteriological and fungal profile of biliculture and cost-effectiveness.

conclusionThis FRENCH24-ANIS study aims to evaluate 5-day post-operative antibiotic therapy combined with antibiotic prophylaxis on the occurrence of surgical site infections (SSI) following pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with preoperative biliary stents.
