Titanium clip migration after cholecystectomy: original technique for laparoscopic transcystic extraction when endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography fails.

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
Surgical clip migration into the common bile duct (CBD) is a rare complication after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Few cases of surgical clip migration have been reported in the literature, and most of them have been successfully treated with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). We present a 71-year-old woman with 48 h of abdominal pain, jaundice and fever 6 years after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. She was diagnosed with common bile duct obstruction from surgical clip migration. After failure of ERCP, the patient was successfully treated with an innovative approach by laparoscopic transcystic extraction using endoscopic hose-type biopsy forceps. The presented technique was feasible and safe in expert hands, representing a valuable alternative to avoid the need of a choledochotomy in patients with unsuccessful ERCP.
