Fifty-year history of biliary surgery.
Review in Annals of gastroenterological surgery, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 papers.
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
There has been enormous progress in the surgical treatment of biliary tract cancers in the past 50 years. In preoperative management, biliary drainage methods have changed from percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage to endoscopic nasobiliary drainage, while the advent of multidetector-row computed tomography in imaging diagnostics now enables visualization of three-dimensional anatomy, extent of cancer progression, and hepatic segment volume. Portal vein embolization has also greatly improved the safety of extended hepatectomy, and indication of extended hepatectomy can now be objectively determined with a combination of the indocyanine green test and computed tomography volumetry. In terms of surgery, combined resection and reconstruction of the portal vein and/or hepatic artery can now be safely carried out at specialized centers. Further, long-term survival can be attained with combined vascular resection if R0 resection can be achieved, even in locally advanced cancer. Hepatopancreatoduodenectomy, combined major hepatectomy with pancreatoduodenectomy, should be aggressively carried out for laterally advanced cholangiocarcinoma, whereas its indication for advanced gallbladder cancer should be carefully evaluated. Japanese surgeons have made a significant contribution to the progression of extended surgeries such as combined vascular resection and hepatopancreatoduodenectomy for biliary tract cancer.
