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

backgroundEndoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is a challenging procedure involving bile duct cannulation. Despite the development of several cannulation devices, none have effectively facilitated the procedure.

aimTo evaluate the efficacy of a recently developed catheter for bile duct cannulation.

methodsWe retrospectively examined 342 patients who underwent initial cholangiopancreatography. We compared the success rate of bile duct cannulation and the incidence of complications between the groups using existing and novel catheters.

resultsThe overall success rates of bile duct cannulation were 98.3% and 99.1% in the existing and novel catheter groups, respectively (

conclusionThe novel catheter improved the bile duct cannulation rate using the standard technique and reduced the frequency of difficult cannulation cases, valuable tool in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography procedures performed by experts.
