Use of endoscopic gallbladder stenting and biliary scintigraphy for diagnosis of gallbladder dyskinesia: a case report.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 40-year-old woman visited our hospital with a several-year history of right hypochondriac pain and vomiting after eating. She had been treated for functional dyspepsia, with no improvement in her symptoms. No gallstones were detected on imaging tests, but papillary insufficiency or dyskinesia of the gallbladder was suspected and biliary scintigraphy was performed. Biliary scintigraphy showed delayed excretion of radionuclides from the gallbladder and bile ducts into the duodenum. We initially suspected papillary dysfunction and performed endoscopic sphincterotomy, but there was no improvement in her symptoms. Biliary scintigraphy also showed delayed excretion of radionuclides, especially stagnation of radionuclides in the gallbladder. We suspected gallbladder dyskinesia and performed endoscopic gallbladder stenting, after which her symptoms disappeared and biliary scintigraphy showed improved excretion of radionuclides into the duodenum. Endoscopic gallbladder stenting may be useful for the diagnosis of gallbladder dyskinesia and for determining the efficacy of cholecystectomy.
