Left posterior superior mesenteric artery first approach and circumferential lymphadenectomy with total mesopancreas dissection in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.

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
purposeThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) with superior mesenteric artery (SMA) left posterior first approach and circumferential lymphadenectomy with total meso-pancreas (MP) dissection for periampullary malignancies.
methods31 patients who underwent LPD with left posterior SMA first-approach and circumferential lymphadenectomy with total MP dissection between September 2021 and September 2023. General characteristics, operative techniques, short-term outcomes and pathological results were prospectively evaluated.
resultsThe mean operation time and SMA first-approach time were 441.9 ± 73.7 min and 99.9 ± 27.7 min, respectively. The median intraoperative blood loss was 143 ml (range: 50-1500 ml). The median number of total LNs and left-sided SMA LNs harvested were 32,7 ± 13 (16-74) and 7,4 ± 6 (range: 3-30), respectively. The rate of metastatic left-sided SMA LNs and meso-pancreas were 25.8% and 22.6%, respectively. 22.6% of patients had pancreatic fistula, but mostly in grade A, with only one case that required conversion. Only one case developed postoperative refractory diarrhea. The mean postoperative hospital stay was 14.1 days. No 90-day mortality was reported.
conclusionLPD with left posterior SMA first-approach and circumferential lymphadenectomy with total MP dissection was safe and effective with favorable short-term outcomes.
