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

Case summary: An 8-year-old neutered male domestic shorthair cat was presented for further investigation of anorexia, vomiting and lethargy. Abdominal ultrasonography and contrast-enhanced CT revealed choledocholithiasis with suspected bacterial peritonitis and non-visualisation of the gallbladder. During surgery, the common bile duct was noted to be perforated, and a cholelith was found in the abdominal cavity. No gallbladder was confirmed during surgery. Three months postoperatively, the cat underwent CT cholangiography and absence of the gallbladder with a vestigial duplicated gallbladder was diagnosed. Relevance and novel information: Gallbladder agenesis is extremely rare in cats, with only one previous report, but several dogs have been diagnosed based on CT cholangiography and laparoscopy. This report describes gallbladder agenesis concurrent with choledocholithiasis in an adult cat and represents the first report of CT cholangiography in a cat with gallbladder agenesis.
