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

Pancreaticoduodenectomy after esophagectomy is a challenging procedure given the need to preserve the vascularization of the gastric plasty. We describe a case of a modified Longmire III procedure in a 68-year-old patient who underwent an esophagectomy with gastric conduit reconstruction in 2019 for esophageal adenocarcinoma. Two years later, an adenocarcinoma of the ampulla of Vater was diagnosed, necessitating pancreaticoduodenectomy with preservation of the gastric conduit. The patient presented no postoperative complications. Hepatic recurrence was observed 13 months after surgical resection. At 24 months follow-up, new liver metastases were observed. Preservation of the gastroduodenal and right gastric arteries was achieved, enabling conservation of the gastric plasty. Given the limitations of lymphadenectomy, the indication for this surgery must always be carefully considered. In the context of complex surgery, a complete preoperative workup to precisely determine the vascular anatomy as well as any anatomical variations is essential to establish the best operative strategy.
