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
backgroundIn recent years substantial progress has been made in the treatment, surveillance and understanding of the pathogenesis of primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC); however, in most cases liver transplantation (LTX) is still the only curative option for cancer or end-stage liver disease (ELD). In rare cases a partial liver resection is a possible curative treatment of a PSC-associated cholangiocellular carcinoma (CCC). These operations represent a significant additional burden for PSC patients.
objectiveDue to the rarity of PSC detailed studies regarding hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgery are lacking. The aim of this study was to analyze the surgical indications and prognosis of PSC patients. PATIENTS AND
methodsA single center retrospective cohort study from 1990 to 2020 was carried out. In this study patients with PSC were included and investigated with respect to factors associated with surgery and the prognosis.
resultsAs a consequence of PSC-associated conditions, in 62 patients (36%) a major HPB operation or explorative laparotomy was necessary. The prevalence of chronic inflammatory bowel disease was significantly higher in these patients (P < 0.019). An LTX was carried out in 46 patients (73%) because of ELD. A liver resection (LR) was performed in 8 patients (11%) and 9 patients only underwent an explorative laparotomy. The overall survival in the LTX subgroup was significantly longer than patients who underwent LR and explorative laparotomy (258 months; 95% confidence interval, CI 210-306 months vs. 88 months; 95% CI 16-161 months vs. 13 months; 95% CI 3-23 months; p < 0.05, respectively).
conclusionThe majority of patients with PSC have to be operated on because of the disease with substantial risks for morbidity and mortality. Curative treatment options are lacking, thus underlining the need for effective early detection and treatment strategies for PSC-CCC.
