Postoperative recurrent jaundice and fever: A deceptive case caused by hemobilia.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionIntrahepatic cholelithiasis is a common disease for which laparoscopic liver resection is one of the treatment options. Here is a case of a patient who developed atypical complications after liver resection. CASE PRESENTATION: A 59-year-old patient with intrahepatic cholelithiasis underwent laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy in our hospital. However, the patient developed recurrent fever and jaundice after surgery. And with multiple treatments, the symptoms improved and the diagnosis was finally confirmed. DISCUSSION: This case has some educational value as it shows that post-operative hepatic stones can lead to biliary hemorrhage due to infection and that imaging and signs can be deceptive to some extent.
conclusionIn patients with intrahepatic cholelithiasis who present with symptoms of fever and jaundice after hepatectomy, hemobilia cannot be completely ruled out, even if the fecal occult blood test is negative.
