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
Backgrounds/Aims: Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) combined with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) remains the most common therapeutic strategy used for cholecystocholedocholithiasis (CCL). Recently, single-stage ERCP + LC has gained popularity for treating CCL due to patient satisfaction and financial considerations. In this study, we aimed to compare the feasibility and efficacy of the two variants of single-stage ERCP + LC (starting with ERCP followed by LC versus starting with LC followed by ERCP) for treatment of CCL. Methods: A total of 115 patients who underwent single-stage ERCP + LC for CCL from January 2021 to December 2023 were enrolled in a retrospective comparative cohort study. These patients were divided into two groups: Group A (ERCP-first approach) and Group B (LC-first approach). Results: Patients in Group A had a common bile duct clearance rate of 88.2%, which was comparable to the 95.7% observed in Group B ( Conclusions: Both LC-1st approach and ERCP-1st approach are feasible and highly effective for treating CCL through single-stage ERCP + LC. However, the LC-1st approach has the advantage of a shorter operative time.
