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

backgroundPediatric pancreatic tumors, especially with duodenal invasion, are exceptionally rare and a strategy for their treatment has not been established. A pancreaticoduodenectomy is often the desired treatment, but may be over-invasive for solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN). This study reports an innovative surgical approach for SPN with duodenal invasion using pancreatic enucleation and endoscopically guided partial duodenectomy. CASE PRESENTATION: An 11-year-old girl complained of malaise and presented with severe anemia; imaging revealed a tumor of undetermined origin, involving the pancreatic head and descending duodenum. Intraoperative findings showed tumor adherence to the pancreatic head and endoscopy revealed invasion of the duodenum. The tumor was enucleated from the pancreatic head, and partial duodenectomy was performed under endoscopically guided direct visualization. Pathology confirmed SPN with duodenal invasion, and no residual tumor. Although a Grade B pancreatic fistula occurred postoperatively, it was managed conservatively. At the 15-month follow-up, no signs of tumor recurrence, duodenal stenosis, or pancreatic dysfunction were evident.

conclusionsGiven the good prognosis of SPN, we believe that enucleation from the pancreatic head combined with an endoscopically guided partial duodenectomy could be a useful and less invasive alternative to pancreaticoduodenectomy for cases with duodenal invasion.
