Preventive Transhepatic Tract Embolisation after Percutaneous Biliary Interventions: A Systematic Review.
Synthesis in Canadian journal of gastroenterology & hepatology, 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
Preventive transhepatic tract embolisation (PTTE) after percutaneous biliary intervention (PBI) may reduce adverse events. The aim of this systematic review was to analyse feasibility, safety, and efficacy of PTTE with different embolic agents. A systematic literature research was performed according to the PRISMA guidelines. The identified studies were analysed concerning study quality, number of cases, indication, embolic agent, embolisation technique, success, and embolisation-related adverse events. Out of 62 identified records, 7 studies of mainly moderate study quality published through 2019 were included for further analysis. Cyanoacrylate (
