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

Background and Purpose: Although hepatopancreaticoduodenectomy (HPD) is effective for margin-negative curative resection of biliary tract cancer (BTC), it is a highly invasive procedure, and its high complication rate, especially post-operative pancreatic fistula, and hospital mortality are still problems. In this study, we investigated the clinical usefulness of pancreaticogastrostomy (PG) in BTC patients with HPD. Patients and Methods: Of the 878 BTC resected in our institution from April 1992 to December 2022, 44 patients who underwent HPD for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHC) or gallbladder cancer (GBC) were enrolled in this study. Perioperative factors and short-term postoperative outcomes were evaluated in two groups of 11 patients reconstructed with PJ and 33 patients reconstructed with PG. In addition, the temporal changes in glucose tolerance, nutritional status, and postoperative pancreatic morphology were examined. Results: The incidence of Grade B/C postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) was 5 patients (45%) in the PJ group and 4 patients (12%) in the PG group, which was significantly lower in the PG group ( Conclusions: PG with immediate reconstruction in HPD for BTC patients may reduce the rate of POPF and operative death without affecting long-term postoperative physiological statuses.
