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

backgroundLittle is known about the development of acute pancreatitis as a complication of corona virus disease of 2019 (COVID-19) infection. This case report describes the presentation of acute pancreatitis in a young woman who then was diagnosed with COVID-19 infection. CASE PRESENTATION: An 18-year old previously healthy woman referred to Imam Raza hospital, Tabriz, Iran with a 3-day history of intermittent and crampy abdominal pain. She had serum amylase of 1288 IU/L and serum lipase of 1541 IU/L. She was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis. She was instructed nil per os (NPO) and serum therapy and also was given pantoprazole, and pethidine for her pain management. The laboratory tests for assessing the etiology of acute pancreatitis were normal. Abdominal and pelvic spiral computed tomography (CT) scan revealed edematous pancreas and enhancing loculi fluid accumulation around pancreas along with the small amount of ascites fluid that all suggest acute pancreatitis. Due to the presentation of fever and COVID-19 pandemic and her potential society exposure, we tested SARS CoV-2 by polymerase chain reaction which was positive. The blood C-reactive protein (CRP) level was 3+ but the chest x-ray showed no findings compatible with COVID-19. Eventually after receiving conservative therapy for her pancreatitis, she was discharged from hospital in the good general condition and she has not experienced any episodes of abdominal pain again.

conclusionThis case highlights acute pancreatitis as a suspected complication associated with COVID-19 and the need for further research.
