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

Cholecystolithiasis combined with bile duct stones is more and more common in children, but the surgical treatment is still controversial. We report on a 3-year-old boy, who underwent laparoscope combined with ureteroscope for choledocholithiasis with cholecystolithiasis. This combination therapy offers the possibility to treat pediatric patients with cholecystolithiasis and bile duct stones in low-resource settings where ERCP experience and child-specific surgical instruments are not available. Additionally, a comprehensive review of previous studies was conducted to summarize the surgical treatments. The surgical treatment of children should be made according to the specific situation to maximize the success of the operation and reduce the risk.
