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
introductionThere is a strong need to make laparoscopic cholecystectomy as safe as possible, but sometimes complications in the form of bile duct and/or vascular injury occur. The safe plane of dissection can be precisely identified with intraoperative ultrasound, ensuring reduction of the complication rate to a minimum.
aimTo evaluate the advantages of the cholecystectomy protocol based on the use of intraoperative ultrasound during laparoscopic and open cholecystectomy. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe study group consisted of 700 patients with symptomatic cholecystolithiasis, which was divided into two subgroups: with the critical view of safety only (312 patients) and with the critical view of safety + laparoscopic/open cholecystectomy ultrasound (388 patients). Laparoscopic cholecystectomy and conversion in patients from the second subgroup were performed under the control of intraoperative ultrasound.
resultsWe did not observe any biliary complications, and the visualization of the common bile duct, the proper hepatic artery and the portal vein was obtained in every patient from the critical view of safety + laparoscopic/open cholecystectomy ultrasound group. The mean time of the operation was significantly shorter and the conversion, biliary injury and intraoperative bleeding rates were significantly lower in this group of patients.
conclusionsIntraoperative ultrasound is a very efficient and safe method of guidance, and its use should be standard along with the critical view of safety during cholecystectomy.
