Arterial resection and divestment in pancreatic cancer surgery in the era of multidisciplinary treatment: decadal comparative study.
Article in BJS open, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of pancreatectomy with arterial resection/divestment for pancreatic cancer with arterial involvement in the modern era of multidisciplinary treatment.
methodsPatients who underwent pancreatectomy with arterial resection/pancreatectomy with arterial divestment for pancreatic cancer with arterial involvement from 2010 to 2021 were retrospectively analysed, and outcomes were compared between the former (2010-2015) and latter interval (2016-2021). Survivals were compared by univariable and multivariable analyses.
resultsAmong 203 patients included, 76 underwent pancreatectomy with arterial resection and 127 underwent pancreatectomy with arterial divestment. Compared with the former interval, more patients received preoperative chemotherapy (26.6% (n = 21) versus 95% (n = 118), P < 0.001), and underwent pancreatectomy with arterial resection (30.4% (n = 24) versus 41.9% (n = 52), P = 0.287) in the latter interval. The major morbidity rate and pancreatic fistula decreased in the latter interval (major morbidity rate: P = 0.040; pancreatic fistula: P = 0.006), even among patients undergoing pancreatectomy with arterial resection (major morbidity rate: P = 0.013; pancreatic fistula: P < 0.001). Patients in the latter interval had better overall survival (26.0 versus 48.2 months, P = 0.001), even among patients undergoing pancreatectomy with arterial resection (22.0 versus 45.1 months, P = 0.076).
conclusionsWithin the context of modern multidisciplinary treatment, radical resection including arterial resection should be justified for patients with pancreatic cancer with arterial involvement, considering the acceptable perioperative risk and prolonged survival.
