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

Background: Textbook outcome (TO) represents as an important parameter in assessing the quality of surgical procedures. The factors that contributed to the achievement of the TO in robotic-assisted pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD) have not been well-documented. This study aimed to analyze the TO in the consecutive series of RPD performed by one single surgeon and identify perioperative factors that are independently associated with TO. Methods: A cohort of 302 patients who underwent RPD by one single surgeon at First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between July 2016 and August 2024 were retrospectively recruited into the study. The TO rates for all patients and patients after the learning curve were calculated. Baseline characteristics of patients were compared between TO and non-TO groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the variables associated with achieving TO. Results: TO was achieved in 57.0% of all patients who underwent RPD and in 63.2% after the learning curve. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that post-learning curve (P=0.002), concomitant diabetes (P=0.009), dilated pancreatic duct (>3 mm, P=0.01), and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score ≤ II (P<0.001) were independently associated with achieving TO after RPD. Conclusions: Our single surgeon's experience demonstrated that TO was achievable in more than half of the patients after RPD. Surgeon's learning curve, ASA score, concomitant diabetes, and dilated pancreatic duct (>3 mm) were independently associated with TO.
