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

backgroundPancreatic resection is still associated with high morbidity rates and delayed postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) is the most feared complication as it may lead to hemorrhagic shock or serious septic complications. Today, endovascular approach represent safe and efficient method for minimally invasive management of extraluminal PPH. CASE SUMMARY: We describe four patients whose postoperative recovery after pancreatic resection was complicated by postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) and visceral artery hemorrhage. In all cases endovascular approach was utilized and it resulted in satisfactory outcomes. We discuss modern diagnostic and therapeutic approach in this clinical scenario.

conclusionPPH is relatively uncommon, but it is a leading cause of surgical mortality after pancreatic surgery. Careful monitoring and meticulous follow-up are required for all patients post-operatively, especially in the case of confirmed POPF, which is the most significant risk factor for the development of a PPH. Angiography as a diagnostic and therapeutic method may be an optimal first-line treatment for the management of delayed PPHs. In our experience, endovascular treatment for hemorrhagic complications of pancreatic resections has shown satisfactory results.
