Late Port Site Metastasis from Occult Gall Bladder Carcinoma After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy for Cholelithiasis: The Role of (18)F-FDG PET/CT.
Article in Nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Late port site metastasis of gall bladder carcinoma (GBC) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a rare finding. Rarer still is such a presentation where the GBC remained occult at histopathology. (18)F-flurodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) can play an important role in this setting by supporting the diagnosis of port site metastasis, by demonstrating additional sites of metastasis, if any, and by ruling out any other primary site. We here present two such patients with late port site metastasis of occult GBC after laparoscopic cholecystectomy for cholelithiasis and discuss the role of (18)F-FDG PET/CT in this setting.
