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

Necrotizing pancreatitis (NP) is a severe form of acute pancreatitis associated with high morbidity and mortality. The management of infected necrotizing pancreatitis (INP) has evolved from open surgical necrectomy to minimally invasive techniques, such as percutaneous catheter drainage (PCD). We report the case of a 71-year-old male with a history of cholelithiasis who presented with acute abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. Initial imaging revealed an enlarged pancreas with peripancreatic fluid collections. Conservative treatment improved his condition, but nine days later signs of sepsis, including a persistent fever were presented. Computed tomography (CT) verified several large gas-containing fluid collections spreading from the pancreas to the left iliac crest along with bilateral pleural effusions. The patient underwent PCD with multiple drains inserted. Microbiological analysis showed Meropenem-resistant
