Application of laparoscopic backtracking full-thickness continuous everting suture for non-AOSC choledocholithiasis.
Article in BMC surgery, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundBased on the current trend of increasing incidence of choledocholithiasis, it is of great significance to explore the closure method of the common bile duct during laparoscopic choledocholithotomy.
methodsBacktracking full-thickness continuous everting suture was selected for primary closure of the common bile duct suture, while traditional T-tube drainage was selected for the control group. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to reduce baseline differences between the two groups.
resultThe intraoperative blood loss, operation time, postoperative recovery speed, postoperative bleeding, postoperative pancreatitis, recurrence rate of bile duct stones, and hospitalization time in the primary closure group were all less than those in the T-tube drainage group.
conclusionUnder certain conditions, backtracking full-thickness continuous everting suture could benefit patients with choledocholithiasis compared with traditional T-tube drainage.
