Cholecysto-duodenal and cholecysto-colic fistulae identified intraoperatively during laparoscopic cholecystectomy in a surgical hub.

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
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the standard treatment for symptomatic gallstone disease and is often performed in elective settings. To address surgical backlogs, the United Kingdom has adopted off-site elective surgical hubs designed for high-volume, low-complexity procedures. We describe a case of a young woman undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy at a surgical hub, in whom two cholecysto-enteric fistulae - cholecysto-duodenal and cholecysto-colic - were unexpectedly identified intraoperatively. Both were successfully managed laparoscopically. This rare intraoperative finding, in a low-risk, preoperatively uncomplicated case highlights the importance of surgical vigilance and reinforces the need for surgical hubs to be equipped with appropriate expertise, instruments, and escalation pathways to manage unanticipated intraoperative complexity.
