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

Patients with malignant biliary obstruction, following endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) failure could be referred for endoscopic-ultrasound-guided biliary drainage through electrocautery-enhanced (ECE) lumen-apposing metal stent (LAMS) placement. However, the efficacy and safety of ECE-LAMS in this scenario have remained debatable due to minimal scientific evidence. The current confirmed 91.0% clinical success, 96.7% technical success, 7.3% reintervention rate, and 17.5% adverse events, following the treatment of malignant biliary obstruction with ECE-LAMS delivery. Finally, ECE-LAMS proved to be a generalizable strategy for managing biliary obstruction for patients who were excluded from ERCP.
