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

Abscesses associated with gallbladder perforation are often confined to the peri-gallbladder region. We herein report a rare case of gallbladder perforation in which the abscess cavity extended into the left upper quadrant. A 79-year-old woman developed gallbladder perforation secondary to acalculous cholecystitis. Computed tomography revealed fluid collection extending from the peri-gallbladder to the dorsal left hepatic lobe in contact with the stomach. We successfully treated percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage and simultaneous endoscopic ultrasound-guided transgastric internal and external abscess drainage. This minimally invasive approach is considered safe and feasible for managing such a rare case.
