Emphysematous pancreatitis: Diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
backgroundEmphysematous pancreatitis (EP) is a rare, severe form of acute necrotizing pancreatitis characterized by gas in pancreatic or peripancreatic tissue, with a high mortality rate.
aimTo assess the diagnosis, treatment, and outcomes of EP through a series of case studies.
methodsThis case series was conducted in intensive care units at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. Patients were included if they were diagnosed with pancreatic necrosis and gas
resultsAmong the 15 patients, 66.7% had a biliary aetiology and extensive type of EP, 47.1% had early-onset EP, and 73.3% had confirmed aetiological evidence [6 based on bacterial culture, 4 based on both routine culture and next-generation sequencing (NGS), and 1 solely based on NGS]. The common pathogens were
conclusionThe mortality rate among patients with EP is considerable, and NGS enhances pathogen identification accuracy. Despite the debate on conservative
