Endoscopic treatment of benign biliary stricture using different stents: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Wideochirurgia i inne techniki maloinwazyjne = Videosurgery and other miniinvasive techniques, 2022. 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
introductionBiodegradable biliary stents (BDBSs), fully covered self-expanded metal stents (FCSEMSs) and multiple plastic stents (MPSs) were common stents in endoscopic treatment of benign biliary stricture (BBS).
aimTo evaluate the effectiveness of these 3 stents in BBS management. MATERIAL AND
methodsThe PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Wiley Library databases were searched for studies that provided data about BBS and stent therapy.
resultsWe found that BDBSs were associated with the highest clinical success rate (0.76, 95% CI: 0.71-0.80), followed by MPSs (0.69, 95% CI: 0.63-0.74), and FCSEMSs (0.67, 95% CI: 0.63-0.71). BDBSs also had a relatively high probability of technical success, at 1.00 (95% CI: 1.00-1.00), superior to MPSs (0.95, 95% CI: 0.88-0.99) and FCSEMSs (0.90, 95% CI: 0.85-0.94). The treatment success rate for BDBSs (1.00, 95% CI: 1.00-1.00) was also higher than for MPSs (0.88, 95% CI: 0.72-0.98) and FCSMESs (0.82, 95% CI: 0.76-0.87). However, BDBSs had the highest stricture recurrence rate (0.21, 95% CI: 0.16-0.26), compared with FCSEMSs (0.11, 95% CI: 0.08-0.15) and MPSs (0.07, 95% CI: 0.03-0.13).
conclusionsPatients with BBS are likely to receive a satisfied outcome when treated with BDBSs.
