Outcomes of endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in United European gastroenterology journal, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 36 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
Background: Success and event rates of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided biliary drainage vary with techniques, and results from different studies remain inconsistent. Objective: We conducted a proportion meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy and safety of EUS-guided biliary drainage and compare the outcomes of current procedures. Methods: We searched MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane and Web of knowledge to identify studies reporting technical success, clinical success and complication rates of EUS-guided biliary drainage techniques to estimate their clinical and technical efficacy and safety. Results: We identified 17 studies including a total of 686 patients. The overall clinical success and technical success rates were respectively 84% confidence interval (CI) 95% (80-88) and 96% CI 95% (93-98) for hepaticogastrostomy, and respectively 87% CI 95% (82-91) and 95% CI 95 (91-97) for choledochoduodenostomy. Reported adverse event rates were significantly higher ( Conclusion: The available literature suggests choledochoduodenostomy may be a safer approach compared to hepaticogastrostomy. Randomized controlled trials with sufficiently large cohorts are needed to compare techniques and confirm these findings.
