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
BACKGROUND We analyzed the outcomes of early biliary decompression by a minimally invasive approach in acute biliary pancreatitis (ABP). MATERIAL AND METHODS A retrospective study was conducted on 143 patients with ABP who underwent biliary decompression by laparoscopic or endoscopic approach between January 2015 and March 2022. Data from the observation sheets and surgical protocols were analyzed in terms of demographic characteristics, clinical and paraclinical features at admission, comorbidities, therapeutic management, and outcomes. RESULTS The mean patient age was 62.3±11.4 years. Mild ABP had a higher frequency in men (75.5%) and urban areas (70.4%). The comorbidities associated with a higher risk of severe forms were diabetes mellitus (odds ratio [OR]: 11.250), chronic bronchopneumopathy (OR: 29.297), and ischemic coronary disease (OR: 2.784). The mean hospital stay was 7.6±3.8 days and was significantly higher in severe forms (10±2.4 days, P<0.001). The time from onset to presentation was significantly higher in severe vs mild forms (5.6 vs 1.8 days, P<0.001) and was associated with systemic and local complications. Creatinine over 2 mg/dL (OR: 4.821) and leukocytes >15 000/mmc at admission (OR: 3.533) were risk factors for systemic complications, while obesity was associated with increased local complications (OR: 5.179). None of the patients with an early presentation developed severe ABP. CONCLUSIONS Early biliary decompression, as soon as possible after onset, either by an endoscopic or minimally invasive approach, is a safe and effective procedure in ABP. The type of procedure and optimal timing should be individualized, according to the patient's local and general features.
