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

Background and Aims: Heavy alcohol consumption and genetic factors represent the 2 major etiologies of chronic pancreatitis (CP). However, little is so far known about the clinical features and genetic basis of light-to-moderate alcohol consumption-related CP (LMA-CP). Methods: A cross-sectional analysis was performed on 1061 Chinese CP patients between 2010 and 2015. CP was classified as classical alcoholic CP (ACP; n = 206), LMA-CP (n = 154), and idiopathic CP (ICP; n = 701). Clinical features and genetic characteristics ( Results: Compared with ICP, the clinical features of LMA-CP were characterized by higher rates of developing pancreatic stones, pseudocyst, diabetes, and steatorrhea, which were similar to those associated with ACP. The prevalence of CP-related gene variants in LMA-CP was 38.3%, similar to ACP (39.8%), although significantly lower than ICP (56.2%). Alcohol consumption enhanced the risk of a poor clinical outcome, whereas genetic factors amplified alcohol's effects. Compared with ICP, LMA-CP and ACP were associated with a high risk of pancreatic stones (patients without variants, OR = 2.01 and 2.54; patients with variants, OR = 2.17 and 1.07), pseudocyst (patients without variants, OR = 1.03 and 1.43; patients with variants, OR = 1.67 and 2.14), diabetes mellitus (patients without variants, OR = 0.86 and 1.31; patients with variants, OR = 2.05 and 1.55), and steatorrhea (patients without variants, OR = 1.56 and 2.10; patients with variants, OR = 2.11 and 1.60). Conclusion: Evidence was presented to show that LMA-CP was clinically and genetically similar to ACP but significantly different from ICP. Our findings provide support to the growing view that there is no safe level of alcohol consumption.
