Evaluation of hypertriglyceridemia-induced acute pancreatitis: A single tertiary care unit experience from Turkey.

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
BACKGROUND/
aimsThis study aimed to determine the frequency of hypertriglyceridemia (HTG)-induced acute pancreatitis (AP) and assess different clinical and prognostic features in these patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe patients who were hospitalized with AP due to HTG (HTG-AP) between January 2005 and December 2014 were retrospectively evaluated in the clinic. The patients with AP due to non-HTG (non-HTG-AP) were also investigated during the same period.
resultsOf 635 patients with AP admitted to the clinic, 33 (5.2%) had HTG-related AP. Mean triglyceride levels were 2653 mg/dL (range: 439-13700 mg/dL). Mean Ranson score at the time of admission was 1.5, and the APACHE II score was 4.63. The mean duration of hospitalization was 4.4 days (range: 2-14 days). One of these patients died on the sixth day of hospitalization due to multiple-organ failure. Patients with a triglyceride level of >1000 mg/dL were younger, had a longer hospital stay, and had a higher recurrence rate. Compared with non-HTG-AP, HTG-AP was observed at a younger age (57.4±17.3 vs. 37.6±14.8, p<0.05, respectively) and more frequently in males (45.2% vs. 57.6%, p<0.05, respectively). The frequency of multiple AP in patients with HTG-AP was higher than non-HTG-AP (63.4% vs. 7.6%, respectively).
conclusionHTG-AP was observed at a younger age and was responsible for most cases of recurrent pancreatitis. The duration of hospitalization was long, and the risk of recurrence and mortality were high in patients with HTG-AP having a triglyceride level >1000 mg/dL.
