Jejunal perforation caused by transanastomotic pancreaticojejunostomy internal stent following pancreaticoduodenectomy: a case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 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
Mortality and morbidity following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) have significantly decreased due to multimodal treatment approach and refinement in surgical techniques. Despite lacking proven benefits, surgeons continue using pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) transanastomotic stent to mitigate post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF). We share a morbid case of jejunal perforation caused by PJ stent. A 69 years male presented with features of gastric outlet obstruction secondary to carcinoma second part of duodenum. After proper optimization, he underwent pylorus resecting PD with child's reconstruction and placement of a transanastomotic PJ stent. Initial postoperative course was well. Later he developed signs of biliary peritonitis. Computed tomography of abdomen revealed perforation of jejunal segment between PJ and hepaticojejunostomy. Despite urgent re-exploration and repair of perforation, the patient ultimately succumbed to sepsis, multi-organ failure, and died. The case highlights the need for thoughtful consideration while attempting to place PJ stents, given the associated risks and the ambiguous impact on mitigating POPF.
