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

Acute pancreatitis (AP) is characterized by acute inflammation and pancreatic injury, with gallstones and chronic alcohol use representing the most common etiologies. Although drug-induced pancreatitis (DIP) accounts for fewer than 3% of AP cases, its recognition as a significant contributor to AP is growing. Sertraline, a widely prescribed selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), is associated with diverse adverse effects, even at therapeutic doses. We present a case of a 27-year-old female with a history of depression who developed mild acute pancreatitis following a sertraline overdose. Diagnostic evaluation, including computed tomography (CT) and serological analysis, revealed pancreatic parenchymal swelling and elevated serum amylase levels, confirming AP. Other potential causes were systematically excluded. The patient's condition resolved following drug discontinuation and standard supportive therapy. This case underscores the need for heightened clinical awareness of SSRI-associated pancreatitis, particularly in the context of overdose.
