Minimally Invasive Approach for Complicated Choledocholithiasis in an Elderly Patient After Roux-Y Gastric Bypass.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Gallstone disease after bariatric surgery is a common condition due to the obesity and rapid weight loss. Because of increasing obesity amongst the population, and the gastric bypass having been established as the standard treatment for morbid obesity, the occurrence of bile duct stones after this kind of surgery remains a therapeutic dilemma. We present a case of obstructed choledocholithiasis with shrinking of the gallbladder and consequent cholangitis in a 69-year-old Caucasian male patient after a laparoscopic Roux-and-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB), who underwent a successful laparoscopic single-stage bile stone removal of the choledochal duct using intraoperative ultrasound and choledochoscopy. There are several techniques to manage choledocholithiasis after LRYGB. Laparoscopic choledochoscopy with concomitant cholecystectomy after bariatric surgery can be a safe procedure even for elderly patients.
