Emergent laparoscopic surgical intervention for perforated hemorrhagic cholecystitis with hemodynamic instability.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Hemorrhagic cholecystitis is a rare diagnosis that closely mimics acute cholecystitis. Physical examination, laboratory studies and, in particular, computed tomography imaging allow for rapid diagnosis, stabilization and emergent surgical intervention. We describe our experience with three patients requiring emergent surgical intervention for hemorrhagic cholecystitis with unique clinical features including decreased platelet function due to liver cirrhosis, dual antiplatelet therapy and intraoperative finding of cholecystohepatic communication. Furthermore, we provide video recordings of two cases highlighting the severity of the disease. All presented patients were hemodynamically unstable and showed peritoneal signs on exam. Laboratory studies revealed moderate anemia and leukocytosis, while computed tomography suggested hemorrhage in the gallbladder. All patients required blood transfusions during their care and underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Hemoperitoneum and gallbladder perforation were confirmed intraoperatively. Patients fully recovered without significant postoperative complications due to expedited operative management.
