Subsequent biliary cancer originating from remnant intrapancreatic bile ducts after cyst excision: a literature review.
Review in Surgery today, 2017. 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
purposeThere are sporadic reports of cancers developing in the remnant intrapancreatic bile duct tissues of patients with a history of primary choledochal cyst excision. The objective of this review is to study the clinical course of patients who develop subsequent biliary cancer originating from the remnant intrapancreatic bile ducts after cyst excision.
methodsWe describe a total of 17 cases (male:female 5:11; mean age 39.5 years), including the present case, from a review of the medical literature.
resultsType I, type Iva, and unknown-type choledochal cysts according to the Todani classification were reported in nine, five, and three cases, respectively. The mean time to the development of subsequent cancer was 13.6 years. With the exception of one case, all of the cases (seven/eight cases) had elevated levels of serum CEA and/or CA19-9. Computed tomography was useful for detecting tumors (9/10 cases). Despite aggressive treatment, the cumulative survival rate after treatment was approximately 40 % at 1 year, with a mean survival duration of 12 months.
conclusionCancer may develop up to 10 years after choledochal cyst excision, indicating the need for life-long follow-up in this patient population.
