Type IV choledochal cyst with polycystic kidney disease: a case report.
Article in BMC gastroenterology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundCholedochal cysts are divided into 5 types. Physicians believe that Caroli disease (which refers to type V biliary cysts) is a special type of biliary cyst caused by a mutation in the PKHD1 gene and is associated with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD). There is currently no clear association between other types of choledochal cysts and polycystic kidney disease. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 65-year-old male patient with jaundice, decreased appetite, and itchy skin. His biochemistry test results indicated obstructive jaundice disease. Cross-sectional imaging showed a type IVA choledochal cyst accompanied by autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD). Due to economic difficulties, the patient achieved percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD) instead of surgery.
conclusionTo our knowledge, this is the second case report of the coexistence of type IVA choledochal cysts and ADPKD. We conclude that it is vital to be aware that the above condition is a possibility. This case report will aid earlier diagnosis and management and possibly prevent further damage to liver and kidney function.
