Etiologies of exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.
Review in Gastroenterology report, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) is a major cause of maldigestion and malnutrition, resulting from primary pancreatic diseases or other conditions. As the prevalence of EPI continues to rise, accurate identification of its etiology has become critical for the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic secretory insufficiency. EPI can result from both pancreatic and non-pancreatic disorders. Pancreatic disorders include acute and chronic pancreatitis, pancreatic tumors, cystic fibrosis, procedures that involve pancreatic resection, and other rare causes. Non-pancreatic disorders of EPI include diabetes mellitus, celiac disease, inflammatory bowel disease, gastrointestinal and esophagectomy surgery, as well as advanced patient age. This review aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the literature on EPI etiology, with a thorough overview to support its consideration as a potential diagnosis.
