A Case of Candidal Infection of Large Biloma After CT-Guided Liver Biopsy Confirming Autoimmune Hepatitis.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Bilomas are unexpected post-procedural complications of cholecystectomies, hepatic resections, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, and-rarely-liver biopsies. While uncommon, this should remain high on the differential in a patient presenting with sudden postop sepsis even in the absence of significant liver injury. Diagnosis involves coordination between interventional radiology, gastroenterology, and internal medicine. This involves a precise clinical history, invasive radiological techniques, and advanced interventional endoscopic solutions for diagnosis and treatment. This is a case of a biloma that occurred as a consequence of a post-hepatic biopsy and resulted in fungal infection, rather than its more common bacterial counterpart. Due to the unusual circumstances, a more circuitous route to the correct diagnosis and treatment was undertaken.
