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
objectiveBilioenteric anastomotic stricture is a serious complication following choledochojejunostomy. Some patients develop intrahepatic lithiasis and biliary tract infection without dilation of the intrahepatic bile duct. The present study was performed to investigate the safety and efficacy of laparoscopy combined with choledochoscopy in patients with bilioenteric anastomotic stricture with access via the jejunal loops.
methodsThe data of 10 patients (7 men and 3 women; mean age, 60.8 ± 9.7 years; age range, 51-76 years) with potential bilioenteric anastomotic stricture without dilation of the intrahepatic bile duct from January 2015 to December 2019 were retrospectively reviewed.
resultsAll 10 patients underwent surgery, and their clinical parameters were recorded. The mean surgery time was 181.5 ± 35.4 minutes, and the mean estimated blood loss was 32.0 ± 15.5 mL. No patients developed serious complications during the perioperative period. The short-term outcome analysis at 12 months indicated that the stenosis had been effectively dilated and that the liver function had improved.
conclusionsThe results of the present study demonstrated that laparoscopy combined with choledochoscopy with access via the jejunal loops is feasible in the treatment of bilioenteric anastomotic stricture and intrahepatic lithiasis.
