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

A biloma is an encapsulated collection of bile located in the abdomen. It occurs spontaneously or secondary to traumatic or iatrogenic injury to the biliary system. The patient's medical history, symptoms and diagnostic imaging findings suggest the diagnosis, but a definitive diagnosis is provided by drainage and biochemical analysis of the fluid. We report a case of a patient admitted with acute abdominal pain in the right hypochondrium caused by a spontaneous biloma. This is a rare condition, and the reason for the onset was not identified. We discuss the role of the various diagnostic imaging techniques, particularly that of ultrasound.
