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.

2 · The registry

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

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) continues to be a daunting clinical challenge. In 2023, it is estimated that 64,000 people will be newly diagnosed with PDAC and 51,000 people will die from PDAC. By 2030, PDAC is predicted to be the second leading cause of cancer-related death, second only to lung cancer (Siegel et al in, CA Cancer J Clin 73(1):17-48, 2023). It is a disease characterized by its late presentation, rapid demise thereafter, and, until recently, relatively ineffective systemic therapies. Despite this grim prognosis, appreciable progress has been made in the identification of patients with localized disease, who may be candidates for potentially curative resections, and in the understanding of the technical nuances and efficacy of aggressive surgical procedures. Currently, the overall 5-year survival rate is 15-25% for patients who undergo resection and receive adjuvant chemotherapy with or without chemoradiation therapy.
