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/

aimsEarly identification and severity assessment of acute pancreatitis (AP) are crucial for preventing adverse clinical outcomes. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy and clinical applicability of the PANC-3 and Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002) scoring systems in estimating disease severity in patients with AP. This study addresses the limited number of studies assessing the use of NRS-2002 in this specific clinical condition. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis prospective observational study was executed between July and October 2023 and included patients who were hospitalized with a diagnosis of AP. A total of 203 patients over the age of 18 were enrolled. Patients with active malignancy, chronic liver disease, or pregnancy were excluded.

resultsPatients with a PANC-3 score of 3 or an NRS-2002 score of 3 or higher experienced significantly more local and/or systemic complications, longer hospital stays, and a greater need for higher-level intensive care compared to those with lower scores (P < .001). The NRS-2002 score ≥3 was significantly linked with increased mortality (P < .001) and was described as an independent risk factor in multivariate analysis (P = .003).

conclusionThe PANC-3 score provides a practical tool for early prediction of AP severity and may help prevent disease progression with timely intervention. The findings suggest that patients with an NRS-2002 score of 3 or higher are at nutritional risk and tend to have a more severe process of AP. Early assessment of nutritional status and appropriate nutritional support may reduce disease severity in these patients. Cite this article as: Ercan A, Kınacı Gümüş.ubuk Y, Yılmaz .akmak N, Kılı.
