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

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is a high-risk procedure with a significantly high rate of complications, such as pancreatitis, bleeding, perforation, and infection. Pancreatitis is the most common post-ERCP complication with an incidence of approximately 3.5%. Although perforation is a rare complication with an incidence of 0.1-0.6%, it may be associated with a high rate of mortality of 1.0-1.5%. Here, we report a rare case of ERCP-induced double iatrogenic perforations in the duodenum and colon complicated by an intra-abdominal abscess. The post-ERCP perforation was successfully sealed using fibrin glue (Tisseel). The intra-abdominal abscess was treated with a computed tomography-guided pigtail drainage; however, the pigtail spontaneously migrated and perforated the ascending colon. The pigtail was removed, and closure of the colon perforation was successfully achieved with endoscopic clipping. Tisseel spray can be a treatment option for post-ERCP perforations. Careful consideration of procedural complications, early detection of perforations, and prompt treatment can be life-saving.
