Clinical practice of basin-shaped hepaticojejunostomy following hilar resection of stage III/IV hilar cholangiocarcinoma.

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
backgroundRadical surgery for Bismuth type III/IV hilar cholangiocellular carcinoma, which was usually considered unresectable, seems to improve prognosis by increasing the surgical curability rate. However, the dilemma of multiple billiary stumps and high postoperative complication rate caused by hepato-enteric anastomosis has been the main impediment. Thus, we practiced and introduce a new technique called "basin-shaped" hepaticojejunostomy to improve the treatment.
methodsThirty-two cases with Bismuth type III/IV hilar cholangiocarcinoma admitted to our department from Aug. 2013 to Dec. 2015 and who underwent hilar resection and resection segment 4(or plus resection segment 1) were reconstructed by "basin-shaped" hepaticojejunostomy. The clinical data were collected and analyzed.
resultsAll patients underwent successful R0 high hilar resection following basin-shaped hepaticojejunostomy and were discharged from the hospital without severe postoperative complications. The average operation time for hepato-enteric anastomosis was 42.1 ± 8.5 min. The postoperative bile leakage rate was 3.1% (1/32), and the biliary infection rate was 6.2% (2/32). Within a median follow-up of 25.6 months, none of the patients developed local recurrence around the hepato-enteric anastomosis.
conclusionsFor patients with Bismuth type III/IV hilar cholangiocellular carcinoma who underwent resection segment 4(or plus resection segment 1), basin-shaped hepaticojejunostomy was a safe, simple and valid method for bile duct reconstruction, with a relatively low incidence of postoperative complications.
