Natural History, Clinical Characteristics, and Outcomes in Idiopathic Chronic Pancreatitis.
Article in Gastro hep advances, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background and Aims: Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a fibroinflammatory syndrome of the pancreas associated with pain and poor quality of life. It has toxic and genetic risk factors but can also be idiopathic. The natural history of idiopathic CP (ICP) is not well-known. Therefore, we studied clinical characteristics and outcomes of these patients followed in our Pancreas Center. Methods: Review of CP patients between January 1, 2016, and April 30, 2021. Patients were divided into 2 groups based on diagnosis, ICP vs non-ICP. CP patients with a smoking history were placed in the non-ICP group. Statistical analysis was performed to identify differences in demographics, comorbidities, complications, controlled medications, and resource utilization. Results: Out of 450 patients, 101 (22%) were diagnosed with ICP and 349 (78%) were non-ICP. ICP patients were mainly female (59.4% vs 40.5%; Conclusion: Our study demonstrates that the clinical course of ICP is less morbid compared to non-ICP. This study specifically removes smoking, a significant risk factor for CP, to study a truly idiopathic cohort.
