Self-expandable metallic stent with
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
backgroundMalignant obstructive jaundice (MOJ) has a low immediate surgery rate (10-20%) and a poor post-resection survival rate. Although several clinical results have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of stent placement combined with radioactive seeds, the existing implantation methods are time consuming and prone to error. In this study, we introduced a self-made delivery system and novel implantation method for a self-expandable metallic stent (SEMS) with
methodsOur self-made delivery system was applied to 61 patients (39 males and 22 females, mean age 66.36±10.73 years) from October 2018 to June 2020 in our center with a novel implantation method. The preparation and manipulation processes were described in detail. Technical and clinical successes were recorded, and stent patency and overall survival (OS) were assessed. A P value of less than 0.05 indicated a significant difference.
