Article in Der Internist, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Acute pancreatitis is a potentially life-threatening illness, with a short time frame for diagnosis and treatment. A number of recent experimental and clinical multicentre trials as well as meta-analyses have provided more far-reaching recommendations compared to previous guidelines. To answer 12 key questions, we performed a review of recent literature and current guidelines. Diagnosis can be made on the basis of history, physical examination and serum lipase alone. Cholestatic parameters and upper abdominal ultrasound enable verification of biliary etiology. Poor prognostic indicators include elevated blood sugar, BUN and hematocrit. The latter suggests early, adequate volume replacement, which should be tailored to the clinical picture, echocardiography and/or modern hemodynamic parameters. In addition to opiate analgesia, meta-analyses support the use of endoscopic retrograde cholangiography in pancreatitis of biliary origin, antibiotics in necrotizing pancreatitis and early enteral feeding. Even where necrosis is present, conservative management (radiologically or endoscopically placed drains) is appropriate.
