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

introductionInitially, COVID-19 was typically concerned with respiratory symptoms and had a mild and asymptomatic to critical clinical course. Over time, many atypical presentations related to cardiac, hepatic, gastrointestinal, renal, musculoskeletal, and neurological features have been reported in COVID-19. CASE PRESENTATION: We present three confirmed cases of COVID-19, who developed acute pancreatitis without any other obvious discernible cause. One middle-aged 48-years old male was presented with severe abdominal pain with mild symptoms of COVID-19, who was later diagnosed with acute pancreatitis with a positive outcome. Another 40-year-old male, hospitalized due to moderate COVID-19, developed acute pancreatitis and was managed successfully. The third 58-year-old patient with control diabetes and severe COVID-19 developed acute necrotizing pancreatitis. Unfortunately, he succumbed due to multiorgan failure while on the mechanical ventilator.

conclusionAcute pancreatitis is uncommon in COVID-19. Although, it should be kept as a highindex clinical suspicion if abdominal pain is reported. Early diagnosis and prompt management can significantly impact the patient's outcome.
