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: The epidemiological data on distribution of pediatric acute pancreatitis was deficiency. And the purpose of this research was to investigate the epidemiology and clinical features of pediatric acute pancreatitis in the population in north of Guizhou, China. Design and methods: A retrospective case analysis was conducted to accomplish the aim. Patients who were under 18 years old with acute pancreatitis were recruited. Data were collected directly from Hospital Information System (HIS) after patients were discharged from the hospital. Results: A total of 95 children aged from 3 to 17 years were collected, 49 patients were boys and 46 were girls. In addition, the percentage of acute pancreatitis occurring in girls aged 15-17 years was significantly higher than that of boys (54.3% vs 36.7%). Meanwhile, the percentage of severe patients over 12 years exceeded 90.0%. Moreover, the proportion of severe acute pancreatitis in girls was significantly higher than that in boys (26.1% vs 10.2%), and 64.7% of severe patients were from 12 to 14. What's more, more patients occurred in May, June, and December and on weekends, 47.1% (8/17) severe cases occurred in May, June, and July, and 47.1% (8/17) severe patients occurred on weekend. The length of hospitalization and hospitalization costs of severe patients were found higher compared to mild patients. Conclusions: Higher risk of pediatric acute pancreatitis, especially severe acute pancreatitis, in north of Guizhou, China occurred on weekend, during May and June, and among children aged 12-17 years, especially girls. Additionally, severe acute pancreatitis was associated with higher hospitalization costs and longer hospitalization length.
