Recurrent Pancreatic Fluid Collections in Disconnected Pancreatic Duct Without Permanent Indwelling Transmural Plastic Stents: Long-Term Outcomes.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
BACKGROUND AND
aimThe clinical profile and long-term outcomes of patients with walled-off necrosis (WON)and disconnected pancreatic duct (DPD) who lack permanent transmural plastic stents and go on to develop recurrent pancreatic fluid collection (PFCs) are not well established. We evaluated the long-term outcomes of patients with WON and DPD who did not have permanent or retained transmural plastic stents and subsequently developed recurrent PFCs.
methodsRetrospective analysis of clinical characteristics and outcomes in patients with DPD without long-term transmural stents who developed recurrent PFC.
resultsSeventeen patients (10.8%) (12 males; mean age: 36.7 ± 8.1 years) developed recurrence of PFC (mean size: 5.3 ± 1.4 cm) following successful resolution of ANC/WON after EUS-guided transmural drainage with LAMS (n = 8) or multiple plastic stents (n = 9). In 7 patients with recurrent PFC, no permanent transmural plastic stent could be placed, whereas in 10 patients, the transmural plastic stents migrated externally. Symptomatic recurrence was observed in 14 patients, whereas 3 patients developed asymptomatic recurrent PFCs. Patients with symptomatic recurrence of PFC were successfully treated with EUS-guided transmural drainage with single/multiple plastic stents.
conclusionsRecurrent PFCs are frequently symptomatic in patients with DPD who lack permanent transmural stents, and these recurrences often require repeat therapeutic interventions, underscoring the importance of maintaining transmural tract patency.
