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

In pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), clinicians often ask whether young age is associated with more aggressive disease or patients more likely to tolerate curative-intent multimodality treatment. The prognostic meaning of age after surgery remains uncertain. We analyzed a retrospective multicenter surgical cohort of patients with resected non-metastatic PDAC. Candidate clinical variables were evaluated in univariable Cox models. The prespecified primary multivariable model included age, sex, N status, T stage, and CA19-9 status. Adjuvant therapy was evaluated in a sensitivity model. The cohort included 696 surgical patients; 70 (10.1%) were aged < 55 years. Median overall survival was 34.4 months in patients aged < 55 years versus 22.0 months in those aged ≥ 55 years (log-rank
