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

The celiac trunk and hepatobiliary anatomy often display variations in origin and branching patterns. A particularly rare variant involving the cystic artery giving rise to a common trunk for the supraduodenal and an aberrant right gastric artery, with an additional accessory right gastric artery originating from the splenic artery, has not been previously documented. We report a unique variation in the branching pattern of the celiac trunk and the cystic artery revealed during routine dissection of the hepatobiliary region of a male cadaver at Louisiana State University, Health Sciences Center, Shreveport. In this case, the cystic artery originated from the gastroduodenal artery and gave rise to a common trunk of an aberrant right gastric artery and the supraduodenal artery. Additionally, the cadaver lacked a proper hepatic artery, and an additional (accessory) right gastric artery originated from the splenic artery. This report is the first documented instance of such combined variations in the celiac and hepatobiliary arterial anatomy. Recognizing potential variations in these anatomies is crucial for radiological and surgical interventions in the hepatobiliary area to avoid iatrogenic hemorrhage or biliary complications.
