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

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a valuable diagnostic and therapeutic procedure that carries inherent risks, with pancreatitis being a significant complication. While most cases resolve without major sequelae, severe complications can occur. A 65-year-old female with a history of pancreatitis developed post-ERCP pancreatitis following stent placement. The patient subsequently presented with walled-off fluid collections and experienced a catastrophic course complicated by duodenal perforation, severe hemorrhage, and multi-organ dysfunction, ultimately resulting in mortality. This case emphasizes the potential for life-threatening complications following post-ERCP pancreatitis and underscores the importance of vigilant monitoring and prompt intervention in managing these patients.
