Percutaneous biliary drainage: a superior option in select cases of acute cholangitis: a case report.

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
Acute cholangitis is a severe, potentially life-threatening condition, frequently occurring post-ERCP. While endoscopic drainage is the preferred first-line treatment, percutaneous biliary drainage (PTBD) is a crucial alternative in select cases. We present a 55-year-old patient with prior left hemicolectomy and liver metastasis treatment developed acute cholangitis following failed ERCP stent placement, leading to rapid deterioration. Due to high anesthetic risk, ultrasound-guided PTBD with an 8 Fr pigtail catheter was performed under local anesthesia, resulting in significant clinical improvement.
