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

A subcapsular biloma is an uncommon but potentially serious complication of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP). We present the case of a middle-aged woman who developed a symptomatic subcapsular hepatic biloma following ERCP for choledocholithiasis. She was treated with a combination of interventional radiology-guided drainage and repeat ERCP. Early imaging and close clinical monitoring were important to her recovery. This case underscores the importance of maintaining a significant suspicion for atypical post-ERCP presentations and intervening promptly to avoid complications.
