Application of three-dimensional visualization technology in the anatomical variations of hilar bile ducts in Chinese population.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
This study aimed to establish three-dimensional models of the biliary tract of Chinese people using the Hisense computer-aided surgery (CAS) system and to explore the branching patterns and variation types of the biliary system under the study of 3D reconstruction of the biliary tract. Three-dimensional models of the biliary tract were reconstructed in 50 patients using the Hisense CAS system. The branching patterns of intrahepatic bile ducts were observed. The biliary tract was classified according to the confluence of the right posterior sectoral duct (RPSD), right anterior sectoral duct (RASD) and left hepatic duct (LHD), and the presence or absence of accessory hepatic ducts. The 3D models of the bile ducts were successfully reconstructed in 50 Chinese patients. The branching patterns of the bile ducts were classified into seven types. The anatomy of the bile ducts was typical in 54% of cases (
