Diabetic ketoacidosis with acute severe hypertriglyceridaemia-induced pancreatitis as first presentation of type 2 diabetes.

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.
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
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is an acute destructive inflammatory condition of the pancreas. Hypertriglyceridaemia is the third most common worldwide cause of AP. Although the presentation of hypertriglyceridaemic pancreatitis (HTGP) is usually similar to other forms of AP, it may cause more severe AP and worse symptoms. Therefore, apart from the supportive care and treatment for AP, it is necessary to treat the underlying aetiology. There are no established guidelines for managing HTGP. Many treatment modalities have been reported, including intravenous insulin infusion, heparin and plasmapheresis. Randomised trials comparing their efficacy are lacking. Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) may be a risk factor for AP, but it is uncertain if AP triggers DKA or vice versa. Here, we describe a case of a 44-year-old man who presented with DKA concurrent with acute severe HTGP as first manifestation of type 2 diabetes mellitus. He was successfully managed with supportive care and intravenous insulin infusion.
