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

Aberrant right posterior hepatic duct (ARPHD) is one of the anatomical anomalies of the bile duct. It is a risk factor for bile duct injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). ARPHD can be diagnosed before surgery by magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography or drip infusion cholangiographic-computed tomography. However, it is not easy to identify ARPHD during LC. Classic intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) procedure that does not lead to bile duct injury avoidance needs to be modified. In modified IOC, cannulation is performed from the infundibulum or neck of the gallbladder. We reported a modified and dynamic IOC procedure that can identify ARPHD safely and precisely during LC. The modified IOC provided direct evidence of no injury to ARPHD in 2 cases.
