Pancreaticoduodenectomy preserving blood flow of the gastroduodenal artery.

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
purposesPancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) requires division of the gastroduodenal artery (GDA). In patients with previous surgical interventions, such as post-esophagectomy patients, the blood flow of the GDA should be preserved. However, a systematic surgical strategy has not been established for these patients. This study aimed to clarify the safety of a strategic diagram for PD that requires special caution during the GDA division.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed the records of patients who underwent PD at two hospitals between 2019 and 2023. All patients were evaluated for precise planning from the anatomical and oncological aspects after PD in the preoperative multidisciplinary team, including the radiologist.
resultsAmong 340 cases, there were 9 in which there were serious concerns regarding GDA division due to ischemic organ failure after standard PD. Among the 9 patients, 8 underwent GDA-preserving PD or PD with revascularization or organ reconstruction. In all cases, curative resection was achieved, and no patients developed ischemia in the remnant organs. Major postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥ 3) occurred in 2 patients (22%). There was no mortality.
conclusionIschemic organ failure occurs in 2.6% of patients undergoing PD. Our proposed flowchart may be useful for complete resection without organ ischemia.
