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: Pediatric pancreatic pseudocysts (PPCs) are uncommon complications of pancreatic injury or pancreatitis; evidence from resource-limited settings remains scarce. This study aimed to describe the etiology, clinical presentation, management, and short-term outcomes of pediatric PPCs across tertiary pediatric surgery centers in Sudan. Methods: A multicenter retrospective cohort study was conducted across seven tertiary pediatric surgery centers in Sudan between March 2022 and February 2023. Patients younger than 18 years with radiologically confirmed PPCs were included. Demographic, clinical, radiological, management, and in-hospital outcome data were retrospectively extracted from medical records. Results: Totally, 38 children were included; 27 were male, and 18 were aged 6-10 years. Trauma accounted for 28 cases, most commonly donkey-drawn water cart-related injuries ( Conclusions: Pediatric PPCs in Sudan were predominantly trauma related and frequently required intervention. Management should be individualized according to clinical presentation, pseudocyst characteristics, and locally available expertise and resources.
