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

Imaging followed by endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided therapy has become the preferred modality for treating pancreatic pseudocysts over surgical or radiological interventions. However, there continues to be a lack of consensus regarding the utility of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) before and after cyst drainage. We describe 4 cases of large pancreatic pseudocyst causing extrinsic biliary obstruction treated successfully with endoscopic cystogastrostomy decompression using a lumen-apposing self-expandable metal stent (LAMS) without ERCP. Endoscopic cystogastrostomy with LAMS was successful in all cases; none required ERCP. As endoscopic therapeutic systems continue to evolve, ERCP is becoming less essential to improve outcomes in patients with extrinsic biliary obstruction by pseudocysts and walled-off necrosis.
