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

The palliation of simultaneous biliary and duodenal obstruction in patients with advanced pancreatic cancer is a clinically and technically challenging scenario. Endoscopic procedures are a valid alternative to surgical or percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage. The availability of self-expanding metal stents (SEMSs) and lumen-apposing metal stents (LAMS) have expanded therapeutic options. We describe a case in which biliary and duodenal obstructions were treated successfully with the combined use of SEMS and LAMS devices. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage with the use of new LAMS and a duodenal SEMS can be a valid option in expert hands as a palliative and minimally invasive treatment for gastric outlet and biliary obstruction.
