Therapeutic plasma exchange for hyperlipidemic pancreatitis: Current evidence and unmet needs.
Review in World journal of clinical cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
With changes in lifestyle and diet worldwide, the prevalence of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP) has greatly increased, and it has become the most common cause of acute pancreatitis not due to gallstones or alcohol. There are many available therapies for HLAP, including oral lipid-lowering agents, intravenous insulin, heparin, and therapeutic plasmapheresis (TPE). It is believed that the risk and severity of HLAP increase with rising levels of serum triglycerides (TG), thus a rapid decrease in serum TG level is the key to the successful management of HLAP. TPE has emerged as an effective modality in rapidly reducing serum TG levels. However, due to its cost and accessibility, TPE remains poorly evaluated until now. Some studies revealed its efficacy in helping to treat and prevent the recurrence, while some studies suggested that TG levels were not correlated with disease severity, mortality, or length of hospital stay. Thus TPE might have no beneficial effect for the outcome. This article gives an overview of the published evidence of TPE in the treatment of HLAP and outlines current evidence regarding individual outcome predictors, adverse effects of the procedure, and TPE in special occasions such as for pregnant patients and patients with diabetic ketoacidosis. Future direction of TPE research for HLAP is also discussed in this review.
