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

backgroundPancreatic collections are a common complication of acute pancreatitis. In Latin America, information on the types of pancreatic collections and their management is limited and may vary between regions depending on the availability of highly specialised and minimally invasive treatment resources.

methodsRetrospective cohort of patients with acute pancreatic collections secondary to acute pancreatitis treated at the Hospital Universitario San Ignacio, Bogotá (Colombia) between 2012-2023. Clinical characteristics, laboratory profiles and treatment received were described, comparing those who had a fatal outcome with those who did not.

resultsOf 689 patients with acute pancreatitis, 113 presented with pancreatic collection (55.1% women, mean age 55 years). Of these, 47.8% presented with acute necrotic collection, 36.3% with acute fluid collection, 9.7% with walled-off necrosis and 6.2% with pancreatic pseudocyst. C-reactive protein, BUN, creatinine levels (at admission and at 48 hours), PaO2/FiO2 (at admission and at 48 hours) and antibiotic use were significantly associated with mortality (P<0.05). The majority of acute necrotic collections, walled-off necrosis and pseudocysts received interventional management, with minimally invasive and combined management being more common than surgical management. Antibiotic management was used in 48.6% of collections, although microbiological isolation was performed in only 24.7% of cases.

conclusionAcute collections are a common and heterogeneous complication of pancreatitis, requiring intervention more often in complicated collections. Certain laboratory parameters seem to be more associated with mortality.

background• Pancreatic collections are a common complication of acute pancreatitis.

background• Their management depends on the availability of specialized and minimally invasive resources.

background• A study conducted on 689 patients with acute pancreatitis showed that 113 developed pancreatic collections.

background• Acute pancreatic collections are frequent and heterogeneous complications of pancreatitis.

background• Some altered laboratory parameters (creatinine, urea, C-reactive protein, and FiO2) seem to be more associated with mortality.
