Innovative strategies in bile duct repair: Assessing efficacy and safety across varied graft techniques - A systematic review.
Review in Surgery open science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Bile duct injuries (BDI) from surgical procedures pose significant clinical challenges, requiring precise interventions for optimal outcomes. This systematic review explores the utilization of grafts in the repair of bile duct injuries, aiming to gain insights from existing literature. Graft-based techniques show promise in improving postoperative outcomes, but their efficacy varies. A systematic search was conducted across PubMed, Science Direct, and Scopus following the PRISMA 2020 Checklist, focusing on studies published until February 19, 2024. The inclusion criteria involved research using grafts to treat bile duct injuries in pig, swine, or mini-pig models. Out of 2231 studies identified, eleven met the inclusion criteria. These studies evaluated various graft techniques, including autologous tissue with biodegradable stents, decellularized grafts, patches, prosthetic grafts, bacterial cellulose film, and heterogeneous materials. Each method had distinct advantages and limitations, particularly regarding postoperative outcomes and histological findings. This review highlights the need for further research to determine the most effective graft-based strategies for BDI repair and improve patient care.
