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

To assess feasibility of primary closure following laparoscopic common bile duct reexploration for the patients who underwent prior biliary operation, we retrospectively studied 50 patients with recurrent or residual common bile duct (CBD) stones who underwent laparoscopic biliary reoperation between June 2008 and June 2013. Endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) was treated for all these patients and validated failed. They were divided into two groups. Primary closure following laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) was performed in 25 cases (group A); LCBDE plus T-tube drainage was performed in others (group B). The items of operation were compared. The duration of the operation in group A was shorter than that in group B (141 ± 85 vs 158 ± 71 min,
