The role of indocyanine green in fluorescence-guided pancreatic surgery: a comprehensive review.
Review in International journal of surgery (London, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Pancreatic surgery is a complex and challenging field, with patients facing a high risk of postoperative complications. In recent years, indocyanine green (ICG) has gained prominence as a valuable tool used in various aspects of pancreatic surgery. ICG is a fluorescent dye that offers real-time imaging capabilities that enhance the surgeon's ability to accurately localize tumors and critical anatomical structures, thereby improving surgical precision and potentially reducing operative time and complications. One of the most significant advantages of ICG is its ability to provide enhanced visualization of the biliary tract and vascular structures, which is particularly beneficial in complex pancreatic resections, in which the anatomy can be highly variable and challenging to navigate. Furthermore, ICG can be instrumental in ensuring the adequate perfusion of anastomoses, thereby reducing the risk of postoperative leaks and associated morbidity. This comprehensive review aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the current applications, advantages, and limitations of ICG in pancreatic surgery.
