Systematic intraoperative cholangiography during elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy: Is it a justifiable practice?
Article in Annals of hepato-biliary-pancreatic surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Backgrounds/Aims: Routine execution of intraoperative cholangiography (IOC) in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is considered a good practice to help early identification of biliary duct injuries (BDIs) or common bile duct (CBD) stones. This study aimed to determine the impact of IOC during LC. Methods: This is a retrospective, monocentric study, including patients with a LC performed from January 2020 to December 2021. Results: Of 303 patients, 215 (71.0%) were in the IOC group and 88 (29.0%) in the no-IOC group. IOC was incomplete or unclear in 10.7% of patients, with a failure rate of 14.7%. Operating time was 15 minutes longer in the IOC group ( Conclusions: Systematic IOC has shown no specific benefits and prolonged operative duration. IOC should be performed on selected patients or in situations of uncertainty on the anatomy.
