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

Chronic pancreatitis usually requires medical treatment and, in rare cases, surgical intervention. The most frequent cause of consultation is chronic pain that is difficult to manage, and therapeutic options such as endoscopy can resolve most problems without surgery. However, when these options fail, surgical management is necessary. The most common surgery is a lateral pancreatic bypass or Puestow surgery. We present the case of a 31-year-old patient with unspecific abdominal discomfort. Abdominal ultrasonography showed significant dilation of the pancreatic duct (18 mm). Abdominal magnetic resonance imaging showed an impacted stone in the head of the pancreas and pancreas divisum. Resolution with endoscopy was attempted, but the pancreatic duct could not be accessed due to impacted lithiasis. After discussion in a multidisciplinary committee, surgical treatment was recommended, and a fully laparoscopic Puestow surgery was performed.
