1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

purposeGallstones are common in bariatric patients due to obesity and rapid weight loss. Bile duct stones after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) pose a technical challenge. We present our experience in management of bile duct stones following RYGB using laparoscopic-assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (LA-ERCP). MATERIALS AND

methodsRetrospective review of RYGB patients who had endoscopic intervention for bile duct stones between 2010 and 2019. We assessed demographic and clinical outcomes.

resultsThere were 12 patients: 9 females, median age 64 years (range 34-73), median ASA score 3 (range 2-3), and median body mass index (BMI) 30 kg/m

conclusionLA-ERCP is feasible for bile duct stones after RYGB and can clear the duct primarily or following previous surgical exploration. It also provides an opportunity to perform cholecystectomy and diagnostic laparoscopy.
