1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Gastrojejunocolic fistula is a rare but serious complication of pancreaticoduodenectomy that can lead to malabsorption and severe undernutrition. A 59-year-old man presented with leg edema and significant weight loss 8 years after undergoing subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy. After preoperative nutritional improvement (guided by indirect calorimetry), the patient underwent fistula resection and Roux-en-Y reconstruction. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 37, and his nutritional parameters remained adequate at the one-year follow-up. This case demonstrates the validity of indirect calorimetry in optimizing nutrition, preventing refeeding syndrome, and managing perioperative care in patients with gastrojejunocolic fistulas after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
