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

introduction and importanceIntraoperative cholangiogram has always been a critical procedure that allows identification of biliary anatomy, thereby reducing the risks of bile duct injuries. CASE PRESENTATION: We present a unique case where the intraoperative cholangiogram highlighted a suspected duodenal injury. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: This case discusses the intraoperative steps taken to ensure there was no injury, highlight the importance of cholangiogram interpretation as a skill for all surgeons.

conclusionIntraoperative cholangiogram is a crucial procedure to highlight both biliary and non-biliary anatomy and can be used to identify duodenal injuries as was assessed in our case.
