A Case Series: Outcomes of Endoscopic Biliary Self-Expandable Metal Stent for Malignant Biliary Obstruction with Surgically Altered Anatomy.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundFew studies have reported the outcomes of self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) placement for malignant biliary obstruction in patients with surgically altered anatomy.
aimsTo evaluate the outcomes of biliary metal stent placement with the use of a short-type single-balloon enteroscope (working length, 1520 mm; channel diameter, 3.2 mm) in such patients.
methodsWe retrospectively studied 13 malignant biliary obstructions treated by SEMS placement. Technical success rate, functional success rate, time to recurrent biliary obstruction (RBO), and complications were evaluated.
resultsTechnical success rate was 100 % (13/13), functional success rate was 92 % (12/13), and the median time to RBO was 247 days (95 % CI 205.6-285.5). Complications comprised mild pancreatitis in one patient. Uncovered SEMSs were placed in three obstructions, partially covered SEMS in five obstructions, and fully covered SEMSs in five obstructions. Three stents occluded (two ingrowths and one mucosal hyperplasia), and one symptomatic distal stent migration occurred after more than 30 days from placement.
conclusionsA short-type single-balloon enteroscope was useful for the placement of various SEMS in this patient population with satisfactory outcomes.
