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

Mirizzi syndrome is a rare yet clinically significant condition characterized by mechanical obstruction of the common bile duct (CBD) and the hepatic duct. This obstruction arises from external compression caused by one or more impacted gallstones, most often lodged in Hartmann's pouch, a segment of the gallbladder located near the cystic duct. The prolonged presence of these gallstones can lead to localized inflammation, fibrosis, and scarring, further exacerbating the narrowing of the bile ducts. This condition often presents with symptoms resembling other biliary disorders, making its diagnosis challenging. This report presents a rare case of Mirizzi syndrome Type I in a 64-year-old male patient. The patient was admitted with complaints of right upper quadrant pain for the past two days, radiating to the back, epigastric region, and left hypochondrium. A comprehensive diagnostic evaluation, including magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), confirmed the diagnosis of Mirizzi syndrome Type I. The patient underwent ERCP with precut sphincterotomy, biliary plastic stent placement, and cholecystectomy.
