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

Primary cystic duct carcinoma is a rare tumor. The curative treatment of cystic duct carcinoma is complete surgical resection, for which the evaluation of local extension is important. We herein report two cases of cystic duct carcinoma in which a preoperative examination was performed using per-oral cholangioscopy (POCS). Both patients underwent POCS due to suspicion of cystic duct carcinoma based on imaging findings. A visual analysis and biopsy were performed to evaluate local extension, which led to surgery. These cases suggest that POCS is useful for the preoperative assessment of local extension in advanced cystic duct carcinoma.
