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
Independent studies have associated laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and pregnancy with a higher incidence of gallstones, especially in Hispanic populations. However, the synergistic impact of these risk factors is currently unknown. We present the case of a 42-year-old Hispanic woman who initially identified intermittent upper right abdominal pain, which worsened over the last four days before the presentation. Abdominal ultrasound indicated hepatic steatosis, hepatomegaly, and cholelithiasis. A hydropic gallbladder with numerous gallstones, surrounding pericholecystic inflammatory changes, and mild intra-abdominal and pelvic ascites was confirmed by computed tomography. The patient underwent an uneventful robotic-assisted cholecystectomy. A gross examination of the gall bladder measuring 15.5 x 6 x 5.5 cm revealed multiple stones measuring 1.0-1.5 cm in the lumen, the largest of which was impacted in the neck. This case underscores the importance of considering ethnicity and pregnancy history while assessing the post-LSG risk of incident cholelithiasis.
