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

backgroundPancreatitis is a common complication for patients receiving endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). The objective of the meta-analysis was to compare the incidence of post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP) in individuals with and without pre-existing diabetes.

methodsA comprehensive review of the existing literature was carried out in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science to identify applicable observational studies. The data were combined using a random-effects model while accounting for potential heterogeneity.

resultsA total of 16 datasets from 14 observational studies involving 158,847 patients who received ERCP were included. Among them, 26,823 (16.9%) had pre-existing diabetes, and 24,654 (15.5%) had developed PEP. The pooled results showed that, compared to patients without diabetes, those with pre-existing diabetes had a lower incidence of PEP (odds ratio: 0.77, 95% confidence interval: 0.63 to 0.94, p = 0.01; I

conclusionsIntegrated evidence from observational studies currently indicate that diabetes could potentially act as a protective element against PEP. However, it is important to confirm these findings through extensive prospective studies that account for various influencing factors.
