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

Even though hepatobiliary ascariasis has been found to cause pancreatitis, it is rare in Qatar and other countries in the Middle East. In this report, we present a case of biliary duct ascariasis causing recurrent pancreatitis. A 46-year-old woman from the Philippines presented with recurrent clinical and biochemical features of acute pancreatitis and was found to have hepatobiliary ascariasis. She was successfully treated with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) and antihelminthic medication. Although hepatobiliary ascariasis as a cause of pancreatitis is rare, it should be considered in patients with recurrent pancreatitis without an obvious cause, especially in those from endemic areas or those who have visited endemic areas.
