Colitis-Induced Pancreatic Fistula with Pancreatic Ascites.
Article in Case reports in gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Although cases of severe pancreatitis causing fistula formation into the colon have been documented, the reverse process of colitis causing a pancreatic fistula remains undocumented. Case Presentation: We present the case of a 79-year-old male with severe colitis resulting in perforation and pericolonic abscess formation adjacent to the pancreas, which resulted in an internal pancreatic fistula and pancreatic ascites. After 2 paracenteses, our patient ultimately underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) with sphincterotomy and pancreatic duct stent placement. The patient clinically improved and was ultimately discharged. Conclusion: Follow-up ERCP was performed 2 months after discharge and showed no contrast extravasation, illustrating closure of the previous pancreatic fistula. Ultimately, our case demonstrates that cases of severe colitis may contribute to adjacent pancreatic fistula and ascites formation.
