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

Pancreatoduodenectomy is a complex surgical procedure involving three anastomoses. Anastomosis of the pancreatic stump with the gastrointestinal tract is associated with most complications described in the postoperative period. So, there have been multiple attempts to discover safe and sound steps for this particular anastomosis. Pancreaticogastrostomy involves anastomosis between the remaining pancreas and stomach. Since it was first performed, its surgical steps have been modified multiple times, but there is no gold standard method to perform it. In this paper, we describe the surgical steps of pancreaticogastrostomy in difficult pancreatic stumps in eight patients using two transpancreatic sutures, one purse string suture, and the incorporation of transpancreatic sutures in the third layer of the gastrojejunostomy anastomosis. Postoperative outcomes of this series have provided encouraging short-term results.
