Assessing the burden and trends of pancreatitis in India from 1990-2021: An analysis of the global burden of disease database.
Article in Indian journal of gastroenterology : official journal of the Indian Society of Gastroenterology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND AND
aimPancreatitis poses a growing health concern globally, yet its burden in India has not been comprehensively assessed over time. This study aimed to quantify the national and sub-national trends in incidence, prevalence, mortality and disability burden of pancreatitis in India from 1990 to 2021, using Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 data.
methodsData on six core indicators: incidence, prevalence, deaths, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), years of life lost (YLLs) and years lived with disability (YLDs) were extracted from the GBD database. Age-standardized rates (ASRs) per 100,000 population were analyzed across 31 Indian states and union territories. Trends were evaluated by age, sex and region.
resultsFrom 1990 to 2021, incident cases rose from 229,614 (95% UI: 190,053-274,618) to 523,074 (95% UI: 435,284-625,178) and prevalence rose from 249,067 (95% UI: 169,900-342,317) to 547,618 (95% UI: 369,410-750,696). The age-standardized incidence rate increased modestly from 32.78 (95% UI: 27.25-38.72) to 36.76 (95% UI: 30.52-43.44), while the prevalence rate rose from 37.83 (95% UI: 25.53-51.76) to 39.70 (95% UI: 26.84-54.45). The ASR for deaths declined from 2.24 (95% UI: 1.57-3.12) to 1.71 (95% UI: 1.27-2.25) and the DALY rate from 77.69 (95% UI: 57.42-111.80) to 56.82 (95% UI: 43.50-73.46). Male ASRs remained consistently higher than female. Higher Socio-Demographic Index (SDI) states showed increased YLDs and reduced premature mortality.
conclusionThe pancreatitis burden in India has increased substantially, with notable regional and sex-based differences. These findings point out the need for early diagnosis, targeted interventions in high-burden states and improved outpatient care to manage chronic morbidity.
