Successful Closure of Chronic Colonic Double Perforation Caused by a Plastic Biliary Stent with Over-the-Scope Clip.
Article in Case reports in gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Biliary stenting is commonly used for managing bile duct conditions, with stent migration occurring in up to 21% of cases. Colonic perforation from stent migration is rare, typically managed surgically or with conventional endoscopic clips. The use of over-the-scope clips (OTSCs) for such perforations is less documented. Case Presentation: An 89-year-old multimorbid woman presented with abdominal pain and new-onset constipation. Imaging revealed a migrated biliary stent causing sigmoid colon perforation. One year earlier, the stent had been placed for choledocholithiasis. Endoscopic removal of the stent and OTSC closure of the perforations were successfully performed, with no complications on follow-up. Conclusion: This case demonstrates the successful use of OTSCs for closing a chronic colonic perforation caused by a migrated biliary stent. OTSCs may be a viable, less invasive alternative to surgery in similar cases.
