Gallbladder diseases in pregnancy: Sonographic findings in an indigenous African population.
Article in Journal of ultrasonography, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
aim of the studyThis study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of gallbladder disease in gravid Nigerian women and to elucidate any association with gravidity and ABO blood group. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis was a descriptive cross-sectional study of six hundred and fifty-six (656) pregnant women recruited from March 2015 to March 2016. Hemoglobin genotype and blood group were recorded and a sonographic examination was performed using Siemens ultrasound scanner. Statistical analysis was done using STATA software for Windows.
resultsAge had a significant association with the occurrence of gallbladder diseases (Likelihood ratio = 7.116,
conclusionsThe incidence of gallbladder disease increased with age in this study. There was a higher prevalence of gallstones than sludge in pregnancy. Also, the incidence of gallstones increased with the number of pregnancies among the women with gallstones. Attention should be paid to the gallbladder during abdominal sonography in pregnancy.
