Extensively spreading intraepithelial bile duct carcinoma causing multiple bile duct strictures: report of three cases.
Article in Surgery today, 2011. 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
Extensive intraepithelial spread of bile duct carcinoma is a common feature, seen in approximately 18% of all cases. However, this spread is rarely accompanied by bile duct strictures. We herein describe three cases of bile duct carcinoma with multiple bile duct strictures due to extensive intraepithelial spread. In all three cases, the spread of intraepithelial cancer extended into the epithelium of the peribiliary glands along the intrahepatic bile ducts with marked fibrosis on histopathological examination. It is speculated that peribiliary gland involvement by superficially spreading bile duct cancer and subsequent obstructive glandular inflammation with fibrosis might cause intrahepatic bile duct strictures even without interstitial cancer invasion.
