Recurrent Acute Pancreatitis in the Setting of Abnormal Pancreaticobiliary Junction.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Anomalous or abnormal pancreaticobiliary junction (APBJ) is an important structural cause of recurrent acute pancreatitis. Outside of the common causes of recurrent acute pancreatitis, such as alcohol, gallstones, or hypertriglyceridemia, this anatomical variant can often be overlooked and lead to delays in patient care and even mismanagement. It can be defined as the abnormal junction of the pancreatic duct and common bile duct that occurs outside the duodenal wall to form a long common channel (>8 mm). We describe a case of a 51-year-old female with multiple episodes of acute pancreatitis. Further investigation led to the diagnosis of an aberrant pancreatic duct anatomy with the common bile duct measuring around 20 mm. This report will include a discussion about the pancreaticobiliary junction, how it can be diagnosed, and what complications it can precipitate.
