Benign hepaticojejunostomy strictures after pancreatoduodenectomy.
Article in BMC gastroenterology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeTo determine the causes of benign hepaticojejunostomy strictures (BHSs) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and the outcome of endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERC) treatment for BHSs.
methodsA total of 175 patients who underwent PD between January 2013 and December 2020 and who were followed up for at least 1 year were included. Preoperative data, operative outcomes, and postoperative courses were compared between the BHS group and the group of patients who did not develop stenosis during follow-up (non-BHS group). The course of treatment in the BHS group was also examined.
resultsBHS occurred in 13 of 175 patients (7.4%). Multivariate analysis of the BHS and non-BHS groups revealed that male sex (OR; 3.753, 95% CI; 1.029-18.003, P = 0.0448) and a preoperative bile duct diameter less than 8.8 mm (OR; 7.51, 95% CI; 1.75-52.40, P = 0.0053) were independent risk factors for the development of BHS. In the BHS group, all patients underwent ERC using enteroscopy. The success rate of the ERC approach to the bile duct was 92.3%. Plastic stents were inserted in 6 patients, and metallic stents were inserted in 3 patients. The median observation period since the last ERC was 17.9 months, and there was no recurrence of stenosis in any of the 13 patients.
conclusionsPatients with narrow bile ducts are at greater risk of BHS after PD. Recently, BHS after PD has been treated with ERC-related procedures, which may reduce the burden on patients.
