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

Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a unique form of pancreatitis often associated with infiltration of immunoglobulin G4-positive cells, a swollen pancreas, and diffuse narrowing of the pancreatic ducts. Unlike acute pancreatitis, AIP is rarely complicated with pseudocysts. Pancreatic calculi, a feature of ordinary chronic pancreatitis, are unusual during short-term follow-up in patients with AIP. We herein describe a 46-year-old man who initially presented with a submucosal tumor of the stomach. The patient was finally diagnosed with AIP accompanied by a pancreatic tail pseudocyst located in the gastric wall and pancreatic calculi by endoscopic ultrasonography-guided fine-needle aspiration. He underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, pancreatic duct stent placement, and steroid treatment and achieved good clinical and laboratory responses. Although AIP is a common autoimmune disease that responds well to steroids, pseudocysts and pancreatic calculi are rare manifestations of AIP and should be given special attention, especially in patients with disease relapse.
