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

Necrotizing pancreatitis with multidrug-resistant infection and portal vein thrombosis poses major therapeutic challenges. We report a critically ill 28-year-old man with walled-off pancreatic necrosis, portal and superior mesenteric vein thrombosis, and multidrug-resistant infection refractory to surgery, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, and multiple percutaneous drainages. Percutaneous direct endoscopic necrosectomy using a mature surgical tract and stent-assisted working channel enabled 4-staged necrosectomy sessions with progressive source control, clinical recovery, and complete portal vein recanalization. This case highlights percutaneous direct endoscopic necrosectomy as a minimally invasive salvage option in complex necrotizing pancreatitis when surgery and transluminal approaches are high-risk or not feasible.
