Impact of periampullary diverticulum on endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography: bridging the gap between fiction and reality.
Article in Przeglad gastroenterologiczny, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Introduction: Periampullary diverticulum (PAD) is frequently discovered in patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). Studies have yielded conflicting results regarding its impact on the technical success of ERCP and post-ERCP complications. Aim: This study aims to assess the success and safety of ERCP in patients with PAD. Material and methods: This study included 400 patients who underwent ERCP for common bile duct (CBD) stones. Patients were classified into the PAD group (200 patients) and the non-PAD group (200 patients). Within the PAD group, patients were further subclassified into three types based on the location of the papilla. The study compared the two groups in terms of technical success and ERCP complications. Results: The success rate of cannulation using selective techniques, needle-knife precut, or trans-pancreatic sphincterotomy was 88%, 7.5%, and 4.5%, respectively, for the PAD group and 81%, 9.5%, and 9.5%, respectively, for the non-PAD group ( Conclusions: The presence of PAD does not hinder the technical success of ERCP and is not associated with a higher frequency of post-ERCP complications.
