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

Background: Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) carries a mortality rate of up to 30%. This study evaluated the association between the lactate dehydrogenase-to-albumin ratio (LAR) and in-hospital mortality in patients with predicted SAP. Methods: A total of 4605 patients (APACHE II ≥8) admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from 2005 to 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Cox regression, restricted cubic splines, Kaplan-Meier curves, and Log rank tests assessed the association between LAR and mortality. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) and time-dependent ROC curves evaluated predictive performance. Subgroup and sensitivity analyses confirmed robustness. Results: Elevated LAR independently predicted in-hospital mortality (adjusted HR per SD: 1.14; 95% CI: 1.09-1.19; Conclusion: Higher LAR was associated with greater in-hospital mortality among patients with predicted severe acute pancreatitis; LAR may serve as a simple, low-cost adjunct for early risk assessment.
