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

introductionAberrant subvesical bile ducts are rare structural anomaly located in the peri-hepatic gallbladder fossa. This duct poses the risk for intraoperative bile duct injury resulting in clinically relevant bile leakage. PRESENTATION OF CASE: Aberrant subvesical bile duct was detected by preoperative magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography in a 52-year old woman with gallbladder polypoid tumor harboring the risk to be gallbladder cancer. During open cholecystectomy with full thickness dissection, the aberrant duct was identified by intraoperative fluorescent cholangiography (IFC), and dissected safely. DISCUSSION: Aberrant subvesical bile ducts are mostly found unexpectedly as intra and/or postoperative bile leakage, and remain an important cause of bile duct injuries after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. IFC, which offers real-time imaging of biliary anatomy, has a potential to overcome these problems.

conclusionWe performed cholecystectomy by using IFC to identify the aberrant subvesical bile duct. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report showing the fluorescence image of an aberrant subvesical bile duct in a state of nature.
