Comparative analysis of minimally invasive approaches for gallbladder and common bile duct stones: combined endoscopic techniques vs. ERCP with laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Article in Frontiers in surgery, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objectives: The combined technology of laparoscopy, choledochoscope and gastroscope was used in the treatment of gallbladder stones combined with common bile duct stones, which consists of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC), laparoscopic common bile duct exploration with primary closure (LCBDE-PC) and combined gastroscopic and choledochoscopic transabdominal nasobiliary drainage (GC-NBD). The clinical effects of the combined technology were evaluated based on hospital stay, hospital costs, postoperative complications, recurrence of stones, and overall patient satisfaction. Methods: From July 2017 to December 2020, 206 patients with gallbladder stones combined with common bile duct stones were reviewed retrospectively. According to the surgical method, the patients were divided into Triple-Scope group (LC + LCBDE-PC + GC-NBD), ( Results: No postoperative bile leak occurred in Triple-Scope group, and patients were discharged successfully, and the abdominal drain was removed around 3 days after surgery, and the nasobiliary drainage was removed around 5 days after surgery with a hospital stay of 9.5 ± 2.65 days. The length of hospital stay and hospital cost in the Triple-Scope group were lower than those in the ERCP + LC group ( Conclusions: For patients with gallbladder stones combined with common bile duct stones, the triple-scope combination is safe and effective with fast recovery, and it is worthy of clinical promotion and application.
