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

backgroundFew studies have examined the impact of multidisciplinary tumor board (MDT) discussion on pancreatic cancer treatment and diagnosis. We aimed to determine whether these patients who are presented at MDT meetings have improved outcomes compared with those who are not presented.

methodsA retrospective chart review was performed of patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at our tertiary referral center between 2019 and 2022.

resultsOf the 190 patients included in the study, 166 (87.4%) were presented at MDT. Patients presented were more likely to receive appropriate pretherapy workup (81.9% vs 37.5%,

conclusionAll patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer should be discussed at MDT meetings.
