The safety and feasibility of laparoscopic approach for the management of intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones in patients with prior biliary tract surgical interventions.
Article in Scientific reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic and open reoperation for intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones patients with previous biliary tract surgical procedures. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed of intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones patients with previous biliary tract surgical procedures who underwent reoperation in the Second General Surgery Department of China Medical University from January 2012 to February 2018. 44 eligible cases were selected. In accordance with the surgical procedures, they were divided into a laparoscopy group (n = 23) and an open surgery group (n = 21). No statistically significant differences were found in the preoperative general clinical data between the two group. Two patients in the laparoscopy group were converted to open surgery. Comparisons between the two groups showed that the intraoperative blood loss [90.87 ± 62.95 (ml) vs. 152.38 ± 118.82 (ml)], the proportion of postoperative analgesia [10/23 (43.5%) vs. 16/21 (76.2%)], and the length of stay [7.19 ± 5.32 (d) vs. 11.00 ± 4.66 (d)] in the laparoscopy group were significantly lower than those in the open surgery group (P < 0.05). Laparoscopic biliary reoperation for intrahepatic and extrahepatic bile duct stones was feasible. Compared with open surgery, laparoscopic surgery has the advantages of less bleeding, a shorter postoperative length of stay, and a lower rate of additional postoperative analgesia.
