Impact of Order Set on Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency in Chronic Pancreatitis, Pancreatic Cancer, and Pancreatic Resection.

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
Background and Aims: Enzyme insufficiency (EPI) is common in chronic pancreatitis (CP), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), and after pancreatic resection. 40%-50% of CP patients and 70%-80% of PDAC patients develop EPI. 1/3rd of these patients are prescribed Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT), often at an inadequate dose, with evidence that this leads to increased morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to develop and implement an EPIC-based best practice alert (BPA) and smart set to improve the management of EPI. Methods: A retrospective analysis of all patients with International Classification of Diseases codes for EPI, CP, and PDAC or CPT code for pancreatic resection from Feb-2018 to Feb-2021. Appropriate use of PERT was defined as ≥ 40,000 units of lipase with each meal. The BPA and smart set were implemented into the electronic medical record in Feb-2020. The BPA fired if the patient was already on PERT or if an order for PERT was placed and directed the clinician to the smart set which provided PERT formulations each prefilled to the minimum therapeutic dose of 40,000 units of lipase. Results: A significant increase in the proportion of patients on minimum therapeutic dose of PERT from 61.9% to 72.9% ( Conclusion: The BPA and smart set were associated with an improvement in the diagnosis and management of EPI and related complications in CP, PDAC, and s/p pancreatic resection.
