Hereditary Pancreatitis Related to SPINK-1 Mutation. Is There an Increased Risk of Developing Pancreatic Cancer?
Article in Journal of gastrointestinal cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
It is thought that many of the idiopathic pancreatitis could have a genetic base. Approximately 50% of them correspond to CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene) and SPINK-1 (serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 1) mutations. A recent study compares patients with acute pancreatitis and SPINK-1 mutation with patients with idiopathic acute pancreatitis. The study highlights a 12-fold increased risk of developing pancreatic cancer with SPINK-1 mutation versus the control group. Nonetheless, authors conclude that only specific pN34s mutation is related to pancreatic cancer. This relation is controversial, and international consensus guidelines for the follow-up in chronic pancreatitis with pancreatic cancer still do not recommend follow-up in SPINK-1 p. N34S mutation. We believe that developing prospective studies in which subgroups of patients with SPINK-1 mutation benefit from closer follow-ups would be necessary.
