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

purposesEndovascular management of post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) is widely accepted as a less invasive alternative to relaparotomy. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of stent graft placement compared with transarterial embolization (TAE) for treating extraluminal PPH.

methodsAmong 741 patients who underwent pancreatectomy at our institution between 2005 and 2025, 45 (6.1%) developed extraluminal PPH requiring hemostatic intervention and were included in this retrospective analysis. The clinical outcomes following stent graft placement were compared with those following TAE.

resultsTen patients underwent stent graft placement, 30 underwent TAE, and two underwent laparotomy after unsuccessful TAE. Hemostasis was successfully achieved in all patients treated with stent grafts, with preservation of the arterial blood flow. Among patients with extraluminal PPH involving the hepatic artery (n = 23), post-treatment hepatic infarction or abscess formation occurred significantly more frequently in the TAE group (7/14) than in the stent graft group (0/9) (p = 0.046). Although stent patency declined over time, intrahepatic arterial perfusion was preserved in all patients, despite stent occlusion.

conclusionsStent graft placement for extraluminal PPH may be superior to TAE in preventing hepatic infarction and abscess formation while maintaining hepatic arterial perfusion.
