Acute Pancreatitis, Hypertriglyceridemia, and Diabetic Ketoacidosis: A Life-Threatening Triad.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG)-induced pancreatitis is a known complication of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (DM). However, the coexistence of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and acute pancreatitis in the presence of HTG is rare and presents diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. We present the case of a 42-year-old female with poorly controlled type 2 DM who developed severe HTG-induced pancreatitis complicated by DKA. She initially presented with abdominal pain, metabolic acidosis, and marked hyperglycemia. Subsequent investigations revealed significantly elevated serum triglyceride and lipase levels and characteristic findings of acute pancreatitis on imaging. This case report highlights the complex interplay of metabolic disturbances in diabetes and the importance of timely recognition and tailored management to achieve a successful outcome.
