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

backgroundAcute pancreatitis (AP) is one of the serious complications among patients with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). We aimed to evaluate the impact of AP on hospitalization outcomes in pediatric HSCT recipients.

methodsWe retrospectively queried the PHIS database to include all pediatric patients who underwent HSCT between 2005-2024. The study population was divided into those with and without AP, and compared for various demographic and clinical variables. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, and secondary outcomes included healthcare resource utilization.

resultsA total of 33,439 HSCT recipients were identified, and the prevalence rate of AP was 1.1%. The AP group had a significantly higher in-hospital mortality rate (22.7% vs. 4.6%), higher median hospitalization costs (USD 698,372 vs. 187,583), and higher median length of stay (138.5 vs. 60 days) (all p < 0.001). Our risk stratification model predicted a 2.7 (95% CI: 2.2 to 3.4) increased risk of AP for a score of >10, with an AUC of 0.85 (95% CI: 0.84 to 0.88).

conclusionAP in HSCT prognosticates adverse outcomes with increased in-hospital mortality, prolonged length of stay, and higher hospitalization costs. Clinicians need to be vigilant in preventing and aggressively managing AP in HSCT. CATEGORY OF STUDY: Population study IMPACT: Acute pancreatitis (AP) in pediatric hemopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients prognosticates adverse outcomes with increased mortality, prolonged length of stay, and higher hospitalization costs. The risk stratification model predicted a 2.7 (95% CI: 2.2 to 3.4) times increased risk of AP for a score of >10, with an AUC of 0.85 (95% CI: 0.84 to 0.88). Multivariable analysis showed AP was associated with 1.5 (CI:1.2 to 2, p = 0.001) times increased risk of mortality in pediatric population.
