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

objectivesPrevious studies have demonstrated that rescue endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) effectively relieves post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP). This study aimed to compare the therapeutic efficacy of rescue ERCP combined with conservative treatment with that of conservative treatment alone in patients with PEP. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this retrospective comparative study, patients presenting with abdominal pain, significantly elevated amylase levels, and relevant imaging findings were eligible for rescue ERCP. The pain score, duration of elevated amylase levels, duration of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), time to resume oral diet, and hospital stay were compared.

resultsThirteen patients who underwent rescue ERCP and 29 who received conservative therapy were classified into the stent and conservative groups, respectively. The median pain scores 48 h after PEP onset were significantly lower in the stent group than in the conservative treatment group (4.00 vs. 5.00,

conclusionsEarly intervention with pancreatic stenting combined with conservative treatment more effectively relieves PEP compared with conservative treatment alone. The optimal therapeutic window is approximately 7 h after PEP onset.
