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

objectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of harmless acute pancreatitis score (HAPS) on admission for predicting mild acute pancreatitis (MAP).

methodsWe prospectively collected the data from consecutive AP patients admitted to West China Hospital between January, 2016 and August, 2017, and HAPS scores were calculated on admission. The clinical outcomes of the patients with harmless AP (HAPS>2) and those with non-harmless AP (HAPS≤2) were compared. MAP was defined based on the severity classification of 2012 Revised Atlanta guidelines. The area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver- operator characteristic curve (ROC), specificity, sensitivity, positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of HAPS on admission for predicting MAP were analyzed.

resultsOf the 703 patients with AP analyzed, 182 were predicted to have harmless AP and 521 to have non- harmless AP, and the patients in the latter group had significantly worse clinical outcomes (

conclusionsHAPS score on admission can accurately predict MAP.
