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

backgroundThe aim was to describe genetic, clinical and morphological features in a large, multicentre European cohort of patients with SPINK1 related pancreatitis, in comparison with patients with idiopathic pancreatitis (IP).

methodsAll SPINK1 mutation carriers with pancreatic symptoms from two French and one English centers were included. Patients with IP were included in a control group. Genetic, clinical, radiological and biochemical data were collected.

findings209 and 302 patients were included in the SPINK1 and control groups (median follow-up: 8.3 years (3.7-17.4) vs 5.3 (2.5-8.8)). The median age at onset of symptoms was 20.1 years (17.5-22.8) in the SPINK1 group versus 41.2 (35.2-45.2). The age of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) onset in the SPINK1 group was 49.5 (44.5-54.6) years vs. 65.2 (62.1-68.3), p < 0.001. SPINK1 patients with EPI were 5.3%, 14.7%, 28.3% and 52.4% at 20, 30, 40 and 50 years. Diabetes occurred 37.7 (33.3-42.1) years following the onset of symptoms in the SPINK1 group vs. 30.6 (17.3-43.8) (p = 0.002). SPINK1 patients with diabetes were 7.8%, 13.4%, 26.3% and 43.4% at 30, 40, 50 and 60 years. Seven patients (3.3%) developed pancreatic cancer in the SPINK1 group (versus 3 (0.99%), p = 0.1), at a median age of 60 vs 66 years. The cancer risk was 0.8% before 50 years, 11.9%, 27.7%, 51.8% at 60, 70 and 80 years and was 12 times higher than in controls (Cox HR 12.0 (3.0-47.8), p < 0.001).

interpretationSPINK1 related pancreatitis is associated with earlier onset and pancreatic insufficiencies. p.N34S SPINK1 may well be associated with cancer.
