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
Introduction and importance: Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the common surgeries occurring worldwide and the gold standard for the management of gallstone disease. The non-absorbable surgical clips may slip and can migrate causing a variety of problems as such, choledocholithiasis. Case presentation: The authors report a case of 43-year-old female who presented with the complaint epigastric pain. She had undergone cholecystectomy 7 years back for symptomatic cholelithiasis. Ultrasonography of the abdomen showed a dilated common bile duct following which endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography was done. A single black-colored stone with the metal clip was retrieved. Clinical discussion: Post-cholecystectomy clip migration should be considered as one of the differentials for choledocholithiasis. Ultrasonography of the abdomen shows the dilated common bile duct. Further management is done by endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. Conclusion: Surgical clips acting as nidus for choledocholithiasis is rare these days but should be considered as one of the differentials for pain abdomen.
