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

A 59-year-old patient underwent the duodenal endoscopic mucosal resection of a hyperplastic polyp. Four hours after the procedure she developed severe epigastric pain. Laboratory and imaging results were consistent with mild acute edematous pancreatitis. After several days of dietary therapy and intravenous crystalloid fluids the patient recovered, and 1 month later was asymptomatic and had no signs of pancreatic inflammation. This case illustrates a rare but clinically important complication of therapeutic upper endoscopy, which may be attributable to thermal injury of the duodenal wall and the adjacent pancreas. It also underscores the importance of the close follow up of patients who undergo invasive endoscopic procedures and the need for additional preventive measures to be taken when resecting duodenal lesions.
