A Rare Case of a Left-sided Gallbladder Accompanied with an Aplastic Cystic Duct in a Patient with Acute Cholecystitis.

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
BACKGROUND A left-sided gallbladder without situs inversus is a rare congenital anomaly of the gallbladder with a prevalence ranging from 0.04-0.3%. CASE REPORT We present a case of a female patient, referred to our clinic with clinical features of an acute cholecystitis. After performing the standard preoperative investigations, which confirmed the diagnosis, the patient underwent a laparoscopic cholecystectomy. We found a left-sided gallbladder, attached to the lower surface of the left lobe of the liver. During the dissection in the Callot triangle an aplastic cystic duct was also identified. The extirpation of the gallbladder was performed anterograde, allowing a better exposition of the critical structures. CONCLUSIONS A left sided gallbladder is almost an incidental finding, which can be accompanied with further anomalies of the biliary tree. A combination of these 2 variations is very rare without any other reported cases in the literature.
