Severe Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis Biliary Stricture Managed With a Small-Caliber Cardiac Angioplasty Balloon: Looking Outside the Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography Toolbox.

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
Primary sclerosing cholangitis leads to biliary obstruction through a dominant biliary stricture. Endoscopic management of biliary strictures with balloon dilation is preferred over percutaneous radiological or surgical interventions. High-grade biliary strictures can be challenging to manage endoscopically because the traditional endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography accessories fail to traverse these severely stenotic strictures. We describe a case of endoscopic management of a severe primary sclerosing cholangitis-related distal biliary stricture managed with a cardiac angioplasty balloon after failed attempts using the standard endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography accessories and percutaneous radiological intervention.
