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

Background: Despite being a technically demanding procedure, the laparoscopic approach for choledochal cyst excision (LEC) has gained popularity in the last two decades. We conducted a study to evaluate the outcomes of the initial cohort of LEC and Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy performed at our center. Subjects and Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted. Medical records of patients who underwent LEC from July 2019 to April 2023 at our institute were retrieved and analyzed. Results: Twenty-eight patients were included in our study, of which 68% ( Conclusions: Laparoscopic excision of CC in 28 pediatric patients demonstrated safety and efficacy. The average surgery duration was 240 min, with a low conversion rate to open surgery (3.5%). The study confirms that laparoscopic approach as a viable option, although it requires an experienced surgical team.
