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/

aimsDespite various scoring systems and imaging methods, it is hard to predict the severity and the course of acute pancreatitis (AP), thereby necessitating better and more reliable markers. Since inflammation plays a key role in the pathogenesis of AP, we sought to determine whether histone, which is a novel inflammatory marker, may play a role in the prediction of severity and prognosis. MATERIALS AND

methodsA total of 88 consecutive adult patients (>18 years) with a first AP episode were prospectively enrolled in the study. Severe AP was defined as having a revised Atlanta score >3 in the first 48 h after admission. Circulating histone 3 and 4 levels were measured using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method.

resultsEighty-eight consecutive adult patients with a first episode of AP were divided into two groups according to severity, in which 56 (63.6%) were assigned to the mild AP group and 32 (36.4%) to the severe AP group. White blood cell, hemoglobin, creatinine, and aspartate aminotransferase levels were significantly higher in the severe AP group. However, there was no difference in serum histone levels between the groups, and there was no correlation between revised Atlanta score and serum histone levels either.

conclusionSerum histone levels did not significantly differ between the severe and mild AP groups. Therefore, these markers may not provide additional benefit for determining the severity of AP.
