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

backgroundDifficult bile duct intubation is a big challenge for endoscopists during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) procedure. We report a case of percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD)-guided methylene blue for fistulotomy using dual-knife for bile duct intubation. CASE SUMMARY: A 50-year-old male patient had developed obstructive jaundice, and ERCP procedure need to be performed to treat the obstructive jaundice. But intubation cannot be performed if the duodenal papilla cannot be identified because of previous surgery for a perforated descending duodenal diverticulum. We used PTCD-guided methylene blue to identify the intramural common bile duct before dual-knife fistulotomy, and bile duct intubation was successfully completed.

conclusionThe method that combing methylene blue and dual-knife fistulotomy to achieve bile duct intubation during difficult ERCP is safe and effective.
