Outcome of surgery for recurrent pyogenic cholangitis: a single center experience.
Article in HPB : the official journal of the International Hepato Pancreato Biliary Association, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundAlthough, recurrent pyogenic cholangitis (RPC) is prevalent in several parts of India, there is paucity of published literature from India. The aim of this study was to report on the short and long-term outcomes of surgery for RPC.
methodsAll the patients, who underwent surgery for RPC between August 2007 and February 2016 in the Department of Surgical gastroenterology, Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research, Kolkata, India were retrospectively reviewed.
resultsOf the total 94 patients, 66 (70%) were women. The median age at presentation was 40 years. Left lobe was solely involved in 49% of patients. Left hepatectomy was performed in 23/44 (52%) patients who underwent liver resection. Thirty two postoperative complications developed in 27 patients (29%). Complete stone clearance was possible in 83% of patients after primary surgery. Over a median follow up of 36 months, seventy one of 87 patients (81%) remained free of stones. Recurrent cholangitis occurred 10 of 87 patients (11%).
conclusionsSurgery plays an important role in the management of RPC achieving excellent short and long-term outcomes.
