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
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) sometimes forms fistulas with other organs due to high pressure of pancreatic duct filled with huge amount of mucus. Pancreatobiliary fistula may cause obstructive jaundice due to the mucus and it is hard to manage the jaundice by endoscopic biliary stenting because of high viscosity of the bile. We report a case of IPMN with pancreatobiliary fistula managed by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided hepaticogastrostomy (HGS). The patient was 87 years old and presented with obstructive jaundice. As a transpapillary biliary stent was considered to have a risk of migration due to the absence of bile duct stenosis, a nasobiliary catheter was placed as an initial drainage. However, the catheter was frequently obstructed by mucus. The patient was intolerable for surgery because of his age. Considering the intrahepatic bile was serous, EUS-HGS was performed and jaundice improved successfully. This case study revealed that EUS-HGS might be a therapeutic option for obstructive jaundice caused by an IPMN-associated pancreatobiliary fistula.
