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
purposeTo evaluate the association of the pancreatic exocrine function estimated by cine-dynamic magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) using a spatially selective inversion-recovery (IR) pulse with the pancreatic endocrine function estimated by the T1 relaxation time of the pancreatic parenchyma and HbA1c values. MATERIALS AND
methodsForty-three patients with suspected hepatobiliary or pancreatic diseases were included. Patients were classified into three groups: HbA1c < 5.7% (normal group), 5.7% ≤ HbA1c < 6.5% (prediabetes group), and HbA1c ≥ 6.5% (diabetes group). The frequency of the secretory flow of the pancreatic juice was observed within the area of the IR pulse, and the moving distance (mean secretion grade) of the pancreatic juice inflow within the area of the IR pulse on cine-dynamic MRCP, and the T1 relaxation time of the pancreatic parenchyma on the T1 map images were assessed. The MR imaging measurements were compared using Spearman's rank correlation coefficient analysis and the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests.
resultsBoth the mean secretion grade and frequency of the pancreatic secretory inflow had a significant negative correlation with the T1 relaxation time of the pancreatic parenchyma (r = - 0.335, p = 0.028 and r = - 0.305, p = 0.047, respectively) and HbA1c values (r = - 0.308, p = 0.044 and r = - 0.313, p = 0.041, respectively). Both the mean secretion grade and frequency of the pancreatic secretory inflow in the elevated HbA1c (prediabetes and diabetes) group were significantly lower than those in the normal group (p = 0.030 and p = 0.029, respectively).
conclusionThe pancreatic exocrine function estimated by cine-dynamic MRCP was significantly lower in patients with prediabetes and diabetes than in controls. Cine-dynamic MRCP with a spatially selective IR pulse may be useful for the early diagnosis of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency in patients with pancreatic endocrine insufficiency.
