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

objectivesAcute pancreatitis (AP) complicates hyperglycemic crisis, yet incidence and predictors remain unclear. We evaluated the incidence and predictors of AP in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS).

methodsThis retrospective multicenter study included patients with hyperglycemic crisis between January 2015 and August 2025 at 3 tertiary hospitals. DKA/HHS and AP were diagnosed per American Diabetes Association and revised Atlanta criteria, respectively. Multivariable analysis was performed for the total cohort and DKA subgroup.

resultsAmong 406 patients (303 with DKA, 103 with HHS), 60 (14.8%) developed AP, more frequently in DKA than in HHS (17.5% vs6.8%). Patients with AP more often presented with abdominal pain and shock and had higher serum γ-glutamyl transferase (γ-GTP) and triglyceride levels. Higher body mass index, abdominal pain, shock, elevated γ-GTP, and hypertriglyceridemia independently predicted AP. In the DKA subgroup, alcohol consumption, type 2 diabetes, abdominal pain, shock, and γ-GTP were independent predictors. While AP was associated with increased intensive care unit admission, it did not result in increased hospital stay or in-hospital mortality.

conclusionAP occurs in a substantial proportion of hyperglycemic crises. Its development is linked to specific metabolic and hemodynamic stressors, suggesting a multifactorial pathophysiology.
