Effect of pancreatic endotherapy on quality of life in chronic pancreatitis patients: A systematic review.
Article in World journal of gastrointestinal endoscopy, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundPancreatic endotherapy provides treatment options for the management of chronic pancreatitis-related structural complications such as pancreatic duct stones, strictures, and pancreatic fluid collections. Most studies detailing endotherapy, however, have focused on technical success outcomes such as stone clearance or stricture resolution.
aimTo review the effect of pancreatic endotherapy on patient-centered outcomes.
methodsSystematic review of studies examining pancreatic endotherapy.
resultsA total of 13 studies including 3 randomized clinical trials were included. The majority of studies found an improvement in quality of life with pancreatic endotherapy.
conclusionWhile pancreatic endotherapy does appear to improve quality of life, there are clear gaps in knowledge regarding many pancreatic endotherapy modalities. Furthermore, qualitative analysis is lacking in these studies and further work is needed to elucidate the patient experience with pancreatic endotherapy.
