A blunt gallbladder trauma: a rare and easily overlooked case report.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The rate of gallbladder injury in the setting of blunt abdominal trauma is ⁓2%. Furthermore, an isolated gallbladder injury in a case with blunt trauma is even rarer. A 16-year-old female patient fell from the third floor of a secondary school building and was admitted to the Emergency Department with traumatic shock, and multiple organ injuries including head injury, spinal fracture, femur fracture, and blunt abdominal trauma. The patient received initial first aid and diagnostic tests, including blood tests, abdominal ultrasound, and contrast-enhanced abdominal computed tomography, which revealed a gallbladder injury and free abdominal air. Diagnostic laparoscopy identified a gallbladder hematoma, with no hollow organ rupture. Open surgery was performed to examine the duodenum and digestive tract, revealing no additional organ injuries. The gallbladder was removed, and the patient recovered without complications by day 6 postoperatively, before being transferred for orthopedic surgery.
