Malnutrition and diabetes outcomes 12 months after total pancreatectomy: A descriptive cohort study.
Article in JPEN. Journal of parenteral and enteral nutrition, 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
backgroundTotal pancreatectomy is a rare but increasingly performed surgical procedure that systematically induces endocrine and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. Data on long-term nutritional outcomes after this surgery are limited. The objective of this study was to assess the prevalence of malnutrition at 3 months and 12 months after surgery and to evaluate diabetes control at 12 months.
methodsWe performed a descriptive cohort study in 41 adults who underwent total pancreatectomy at the Grenoble Alpes University Hospital (Grenoble, France) between January 2021 and July 2024. Nutritional status was defined according to national criteria based on weight loss, body mass index, and muscle mass with CT scan, or function. Data were collected before surgery, at 3 months, and at 12 months.
resultsA total of 41 patients were included. The prevalence of malnutrition increased from 25.0% (95% CI: 12.7-41.2) at the preoperative visit versus 59.5% (95% CI: 42.1-75.2) and 59.0% (95% CI: 42.1-74.4) at both 3 and 12 months. Weight loss exceeded 10% of usual body weight in more than half of patients at 12 months. At 12 months, all patients had type 3c diabetes with a median glycated hemoglobin at 8.0% (7.2-8.8, n = 32) and a time in hypoglycemia defined as the time below range of 0.2 (0.0-1.5).
conclusionMalnutrition is highly prevalent after total pancreatectomy and persists at 12 months related to important weight loss, while diabetes appears manageable. These findings highlight the need for systematic nutritional monitoring and optimization of perioperative nutritional strategies in this population.
