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

Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disorder of undetermined etiology that usually affects the lungs. It is a rare presentation to have an association between sarcoidosis and pancreatitis. We present a challenging case of acute pancreatitis and kidney dysfunction which had been diagnosed later to be sarcoidosis. A 12-year-old boy with abdominal pain and weight loss for one month, however, had no respiratory manifestations. Investigations revealed elevated lipase and creatinine. The patient was managed for acute kidney injury with an initial suspicion for autoimmune pancreatitis. Further workup revealed acute interstitial nephritis with non-necrotizing granuloma on renal biopsy. He developed uveitis and was found to have a variant in the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene, which led to the diagnosis of sarcoidosis. According to our knowledge, this is the first case with juvenile sarcoidosis involving the pancreas and kidney.
