Clinical effect of percutaneous hepatic puncture biliary drainage combined with metal stent implantation in the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice.
Article in BMC surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of percutaneous hepatic puncture biliary drainage combined with metal stent implantation in the treatment of malignant obstructive jaundice, focusing on improvements in liver function, bile duct patency time, and reduction of postoperative complications.
methods181 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice were retrospectively selected from a hospital in Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, from April 2021 to May 2024, of which 132 underwent routine percutaneous liver puncture biliary drainage and 49 underwent percutaneous liver puncture biliary drainage combined with metal stent implantation as the observation group.
resultsThe clinical efficacy of the observation group was higher (P < 0.05), and the bile duct patency time was longer (P < 0.05). The AST, ALT, DBIL and TBIL levels were decreased 1 week and 1 month after surgery, and the decrease was more significant in the observation group (P < 0.05). In addition, the incidence of postoperative complications (bile duct infection and electrolyte disturbance) in the observation group was lower (P < 0.05).
conclusionPercutaneous hepatic puncture biliary drainage combined with metal stent implantation has significant clinical efficacy, which can effectively improve the clinical symptoms of patients, prolong the biliary patency time, reduce the level of bilirubin, promote the improvement of liver function, and lower the incidence of postoperative complications. CLINICAL TRIAL NUMBER: not applicable.
