Extra-pancreatic manifestations reported in association with pancreatitis; an international survey report.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND/
objectivesLocal and systemic manifestations have been reported in association with pancreatitis, anecdotally. However, a systematic collection on the prevalence of each of these symptoms in pancreatitis is lacking. We aimed to determine the prevalence of symptoms and diagnoses reported by a cohort of patients with pancreatitis, refer to as "extra pancreatic manifestation of pancreatitis".
methodsCross-sectional study approved by the IRB and administered through a REDCap survey by "Mission: Cure", a nonprofit organization.
resultsOf the 225 respondents analyzed; 89% were adults, 69% females, 89% Caucasians with 74% residing in the USA. 42% of children and 50% of adults reported exocrine pancreatic insufficiency while 8% of children and 26% of adults reported DM. Type 3c DM was reported in all children and 45% of adult DM cases. Children were diagnosed with genetic or hereditary pancreatitis more frequently compared to adults (33.3% versus 8%; p = <0.001). Significantly more symptoms and diagnoses were reported by adults when compared to children including nighttime sweats, bloating, or cramping, greasy or oily stools, feeling cold and GERD with p values of 0.002, 0.006, 0.046, 0.002 and 0.003 respectively.
conclusionsAdults with pancreatitis frequently report symptoms not known to be associated with pancreatitis. Studies investigating mechanisms for these associated symptoms should be explored.
