Preoperative prediction of curative surgery of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma by combination of endoscopic ultrasound and computed tomography.
Article in United European gastroenterology journal, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundPerihilar cholangiocarcinomas are often considered incurable. Late diagnosis is common. Advanced disease therefore frequently causes questioning of curative surgical outcome.
aimThis study aimed to develop a prediction model of curative surgery in patients suffering from perihilar cholangiocarcinomas based on preoperative endosonography and computer tomography.
methodsA cohort of 81 patients (median age 67 (54-75) years, 62% male) with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma was retrospectively analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis of staging variables taken from the European Staging System was performed and applied to ROC analysis.
resultsThe correlation of predicted rates of eligibility for surgery with actual rates reached AUC values between 0.652 and 0.758 for endosonography and computer tomography (
conclusionsOur predictive web-based model pSurg with inclusion of T, N, M, B, PV, HA and V stage of the recently published European Staging System for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma results in highly significant predictability for curative surgery when combining preoperative endosonography and computer tomography, thus allowing for better patient selection in terms of possibility of curative surgery.
