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

abstractPost-operative bile leakage (POBL) is a serious complication following hepatobiliary surgery, with potentially life-threatening consequences if left untreated. This article presents a successful case of POBL management without surgical intervention. A 31-year-old male, diagnosed with bile leakage before hospitalisation, underwent percutaneous biliary drainage (PTBD) to address bilomas. Follow-up after 3 months indicated biloma atrophy and POBL healing but revealed bile duct stenosis. The patient received a larger biliary drainage tube, and after 1 month, the biloma and tube were removed. A 1-year follow-up confirmed the patient's excellent health. This case underscores the safety and efficacy of PTBD for managing POBL, offering a non-invasive alternative for patients with this complication. PTBD presents a viable treatment option for POBL cases, minimising the need for surgical interventions and their associated risks.
