Clinical efficacy of laparoscopic cholecystectomy combined with percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage in severe acute cholecystitis: an analysis of prognostic risk factors.
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 1 paper.
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
Objective: To analyze the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) combined with percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) in patients with acute critical cholecystitis. Methods: One hundred patients diagnosed with severe acute cholecystitis were retrospectively selected and categorized into two groups based on the surgical approach: the joint group ( Results: The joint group demonstrated a significantly shorter surgery duration and lower intraoperative blood loss compared to the LC group ( Conclusion: Compared with LC alone, LC combined with PTGBD is more effective in reducing surgical trauma in patients with severe acute cholecystitis, improving postoperative inflammatory markers, and accelerating recovery. However, this combined approach is associated with significantly higher direct medical costs during hospitalization.
