Laparoscopic-Assisted ERCP in Gastric Bypass Patients-No Stones Left Unturned: A Single Center Retrospective Cohort Study.
Article in Obesity surgery, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
purposeThe long-term need for biliary duct intervention following Roux-en-Y gastric bypass surgery (RYGB) is uncertain. We investigated the rate of laparoscopic assisted retrograde cholangiopancreatography (LAERCP) following RYGB. Also, the pre-LAERCP diagnostic workup together with the true rate of choledocholithiasis in patients with or without prior cholecystectomy was investigated. MATERIALS AND
methodsRetrospective cohort study of RYGB and LAERCP performed at the Hospital South West Jutland, University Hospital of Southern Denmark, from 1 January 2013 to 31 May 2022.
resultsOne percent of patients (n = 13) with a history of RYGB (n = 1363) underwent LAERCP at our facility during a median follow-up of 60.6 months. The stone extraction rate was 66.7% in patients with in situ gallbladder and 12.5% in patients with prior cholecystectomy. Cannulation of the common bile duct was achieved in 96.7% of cases. Postoperative complications were observed in 22.6% of the cases.
conclusionApproximately 1% of RYGB patients needed LAERCP during a median follow-up of 5 years. In patients with a history of cholecystectomy, the LAERCP rate of stone extraction was very low (12.5%).
