Enhancing management of pancreatic cancer: impact of a same day multidisciplinary clinic on access to guideline-directed care.
Article in HPB : the official journal of the International Hepato Pancreato Biliary Association, 2025. 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
backgroundPancreatic cancer (PC) requires a multimodal treatment approach. We evaluated the impact of our same-day pancreatic multidisciplinary clinic (PMDC) on genetic testing, ancillary service access, treatment timelines, clinical trial enrollment, and survival.
methodsWe retrospectively compared guideline directed care, clinical metrics and outcomes in patients managed through our PMDC (n = 87; Oct 2021-June 2023) versus an age- and resectability-matched cohort from our internal registry who received standard sequential care non-PMDC (n = 87; Jan-Dec 2020).
resultsPMDC patients were significantly more likely to undergo somatic (OR 3.69, p < 0.001) and germline testing (OR 15.41, p < 0.001), receive upfront access palliative care (OR 7.86, p < 0.001) and social services (OR 4.48, p = 0.028), initiate treatment sooner (14.3 vs. 30.9 days, p = 0.002), and enroll in clinical trials (OR 2.30, p = 0.042). Among newly diagnosed metastatic PC patients, PMDC care was independently associated with improved survival (487 vs. 267 days, p = 0.021).
conclusionA same-day PMDC significantly improves access to guideline-recommended care and prolongs survival in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer.
