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: Pancreatic fluid collections (PFCs) are the most common local complications of pediatric pancreatitis. Evidence in children is limited, with most evidence extrapolated from adult studies. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was conducted at a tertiary pediatric surgical center between 2013 and 2024. Children with acute pancreatitis (AP), acute recurrent pancreatitis, or acute-on-chronic pancreatitis (ACP) who developed PFCs were included. PFCs were classified according to the revised Atlanta classification. Results: Fluid collections were noted in 92 (40%) children. Acute peripancreatic fluid collection (APFC) was the most common type (70%). Acute necrotic collections (ANCs) occurred more frequently in older children ( Conclusion: PFCs occurred in approximately 40% of children with pancreatitis, most commonly as APFCs. Collections >6 cm in diameter were more likely to progress and require intervention. Percutaneous drainage was a safe and effective modality for symptomatic collections in this cohort.
