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

objectivesOxidative stress is an important event in the pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis. Superoxide dismutase is a major antioxidant enzyme in the body. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in superoxide dismutase activity early in the onset of acute pancreatitis and its value in predicting the risk of organ failure and mortality.

methodsData for 2549 patients hospitalized from 2013 to 2017 were extracted from the prospective database, and we selected 854 adult patients who were admitted within 24 h of disease onset with complete data. Serum superoxide dismutase activities on the first, second, and third days of hospital admission for patients with different severities, organ failure, and mortality were compared. The areas under the curve for the prediction of organ failure, pancreatic necrosis, and mortality were estimated using receiver operating characteristic curves.

resultsAmong the 854 adult patients, superoxide dismutase activities were significantly different among patients with mild acute pancreatitis, moderately severe acute pancreatitis, and severe acute pancreatitis (P = 0.005). Superoxide dismutase activity was significantly decreased in patients with persistent renal failure (77.8 ± 37.2), persistent circulatory failure (66.2 ± 14.9), and mortality (64.3 ± 16.0). The accuracy of superoxide dismutase with regard to predicting persistent circulatory failure and mortality was high, and the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves were 0.83 and 0.84, respectively.

conclusionsSuperoxide dismutase activity was negatively correlated with the severity and clinical outcome of AP. Superoxide dismutase activity is highly accurate at predicting persistent circulation failure and mortality in the early stage of AP.
