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

objectiveThe optimal technique for nasojejunal tube (NJT) placement in terms of facilitating early enteral nutrition (EN) in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) is unclear. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the impact of two common techniques on EN implementation and clinical outcomes in a group of AP patients.

methodsThis is a retrospective study. All the data were extracted from an electronic database from August 2015 to October 2017. Patients with a diagnosis of AP requiring NJT placement were retrospectively analyzed. The primary outcome was the successful procedural rate.

resultsA total of 53 eligible patients were enrolled, of whom 30 received an ultrasound-assisted technique and the rest received the endoscopy method (

conclusionCompared with endoscopic procedures, ultrasound-assisted NJT placement possesses the acceptable success rates of initial placement procedures.
