Inpatient Outcomes of Pancreatic Cancer Surgery in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease.
Article in Cancers, 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
backgroundCoronary artery disease (CAD) is an important comorbidity that may increase perioperative cardiovascular risk in major noncardiac surgery. However, data evaluating its impact on outcomes following pancreatic cancer surgery remain limited. This study evaluated inpatient outcomes among patients undergoing pancreatic cancer resection with versus without CAD in the United States.
methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis using the National Inpatient Sample (2016-2022). Adult hospitalizations with ICD-10 diagnosis codes for pancreatic cancer and procedure codes for pancreatic resection were identified and stratified by the presence of CAD. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included length of stay, hospitalization cost, and complications such as shock, respiratory failure, acute kidney injury, and transfusion.
resultsA total of 49,395 hospitalizations were identified, including 6910 (14.0%) with CAD. Patients with CAD were older and had a greater comorbidity burden. In-hospital mortality was similar between groups (2.32% vs. 2.34%). Most complications were comparable, although shock was more frequent in CAD patients (6.66% vs. 5.44%). Length of stay was similar, while hospitalization costs were modestly higher in the CAD cohort.
conclusionsPre-existing CAD was not associated with increased in-hospital mortality or longer hospitalization following pancreatic cancer surgery despite a greater comorbidity burden.
