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

A choledochal cyst is a rare condition that requires surgical treatment to prevent complications, such as obstructive jaundice, cyst rupture, cholangitis, and the risk of malignancy. Complete cyst excision is considered the best option, as it reduces the risk of inflammation and the development of cholangiocarcinoma. Therefore, cholecystectomy and complete cyst resection followed by reconstruction with a Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy is the treatment of choice. We present a case (with video) that shows the complete resection of a type I choledochal cyst with Roux-en-Y reconstruction of two separate ducts since the right posterior duct reached the cyst independently. The laparoscopic approach offers all the advantages of mini-invasive surgery and better visualization of the structures; however, biliary reconstruction to fine ducts implies a surgical challenge that requires high training in mini-invasive surgery.
