Remnant Cholecystitis After Subtotal Cholecystectomy: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Remnant cholecystitis is a rare complication following subtotal cholecystectomy (STC), particularly when the reconstituting technique is used, which leaves a portion of the gallbladder behind. This remnant can become inflamed due to recurrent or retained gallstones. We present the case of a 39-year-old female who required a completion cholecystectomy 11 years after her initial STC due to severe recurrent right upper quadrant (RUQ) pain, nausea, and vomiting with an ultrasound that revealed cholelithiasis. This case highlights the need for increased awareness of remnant cholecystitis, better diagnostic approaches, and standardized management guidelines to prevent long-term complications. Further research is necessary to improve the treatment of this rare condition and optimize patient outcomes.
