Percutaneous transhepatic cholangioscopy-guided lithotripsy and retrieval of vascular coils eroded into the biliary tree.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Endovascular coil erosion into the biliary system after hepatic artery embolization is a rare complication which may result in inflammation, strictures, choledocholithiasis, biliary colic, and cholangitis. Removal of coils may result in cessation of these symptoms, but is challenging in patients who cannot undergo removal via standard endoscopic approaches. This case report describes the retrieval of coils placed across a hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm, which over several years eroded into the biliary tree, resulting in calculi formation and post-prandial pain. Using combined fluoroscopy and cholangioscopy via percutaneous transhepatic accesses, the calculi were fragmented and the coils were retrieved, resulting in cessation of symptoms.
