Gut or Vein? Enteral Nutrition Versus Total Parenteral Nutrition in Acute Pancreatitis: A Systematic Review.
Review in Cureus, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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 is a common inflammatory condition with significant morbidity and mortality, particularly in patients who progress to moderately severe or severe disease. Nutritional support is an essential aspect of management, although the optimal route of nutrition remains debated. This systematic review assessed whether enteral nutrition (EN), compared with total parenteral nutrition (TPN), is associated with improved clinical outcomes in patients with acute pancreatitis. A thorough literature search was conducted across multiple electronic databases in accordance with Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) 2020 guidelines, including studies published between 1/01/2010 and 22/11/2025. A total of 1,480 records were identified, of which 1,382 records were screened after duplicate removal. Following title, abstract, and full text assessment, six studies met the predefined inclusion criteria and quality standards and were included in the final analysis. Eligible studies included human patients with acute pancreatitis that directly compared EN with TPN and reported clinically relevant outcomes such as morbidity and mortality. Study selection, data extraction, and quality appraisal were conducted using validated tools, including version 2 of
