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

Introduction and importance: Drug-induced pancreatitis is an important health issue that makes a minority of causes of acute pancreatitis. Tigecycline-induced pancreatitis is a rare condition with poorly understood mechanism and has a small incident compared to other causes of pancreatitis. Case presentation: The authors present a case of a 39-year-old female patient with acute pancreatitis. Tigecycline was the suspected culprit by exclusion. The patient was managed by keeping her nill per os, rehydration, pain management and discontinuation of the drug. The patient improved gradually. Clinical discussion: Tigecycline-induced acute pancreatitis is a rare but known complication that is mostly seen in patients with chronic renal insufficiency combined with high dose of administration. Onset is usually within 14 days of initiation. Discontinuation of the drug is the most effective intervention in addition to supportive management. Conclusion: Acute pancreatitis should be suspected in any patient presenting with vomiting, abdominal pain and acidosis while on tigecycline. Monitoring of amylase and lipase can be beneficial especially in those with chronic renal insufficiency or those receiving a high dose.
