1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundFluorescent cholangiography (FC) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is a novel method to facilitate real-time visualization of extrahepatic biliary structures that avoiding risk of bile duct injury. Aims of this study are to investigate the feasibility and the safety of FC during LC.

methodWe evaluated the outcomes of FC during elective LC at our hospital from August 2017 to April 2018. Fifty-five patients who underwent FC during elective LC were enrolled in this study. Demographic and peri-operative data were recorded and analyzed. The primary endpoints were visualization rate of FC during LC. The secondary endpoint was the optimal conditions and technical details for FC included to detect any potential adverse event.

resultsThe visualization rate after FC of the cystic duct, common hepatic duct and common bile duct were increased significantly compared to before FC. The identification rate of the cystic duct and common bile duct were not associated with BMI and history of acute cholecystitis.

conclusionsFC enabled real-time visualization of extrahepatic biliary structures during LC. FC appears to be a safe and efficient approach for elective LC.
