Diagnostic value of inflammatory indices and triglycerides in hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveHigh triglyceride (TG) levels complicate the diagnosis of acute pancreatitis (AP) due to delayed lipid testing. This study evaluates the diagnostic value of inflammatory indices, particularly the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI), for identifying hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis (HLAP).
methodsA retrospective cohort study analyzed 140 AP patients (59 HLAP, 81 non-HLAP) admitted between January 2023 and December 2024. The HLAP group was further stratified into gray-zone (HLAP-G) and typical (HLAP-S) subgroups. Healthy controls (HC, n=80) and individuals with simple hypertriglyceridemia (HTG, n=80) were included for comparison. Inflammatory indices (PLR, SIRI, NLR, MLR, SII) were calculated from admission blood counts. Diagnostic performance was assessed using ROC analysis, and a combined model (PLR+SIRI+TG) was developed and validated in an external cohort. Dynamic changes of PLR and SIRI were evaluated at 1, 6, and 12 hours post-admission.
resultsPLR, SIRI, and other indices were significantly higher in the HLAP group than in the non-HLAP, HTG, and HC groups (all P < 0.01), showing a stepwise increase from HC to HLAP-S. SIRI demonstrated the highest diagnostic efficacy for HLAP (AUC=0.973, sensitivity =91.5%, specificity =96.3%), followed by PLR (AUC=0.960). The combined model achieved the highest AUC (0.988), with external validation confirming generalizability (AUC=0.845). Dynamic profiles revealed peak PLR and SIRI at 6 hours post-admission. Multivariate analysis identified PLR and SIRI as independent risk factors for HLAP.
conclusionsPLR and SIRI are valuable, easily accessible tools for early HLAP diagnosis. Their high diagnostic accuracy, particularly when combined with TG, provides a robust method for prompt identification and targeted therapy.
