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

backgroundEndoscopic ultrasound-guided biliary drainage, including endoscopic ultrasound-guided choledochoduodenostomy and endoscopic ultrasound-guided hepatogastrostomy (EUS-HGS), is an efficacious alternative to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography and its common complications are bile leak, infection, stent migration and bleeding. Here, we report an atypical case of a patient who developed unexplained dark green urine after receiving EUS-HGS, which we suspected to be caused by an abnormal biliary-vascular fistula. CASE SUMMARY: A 76-year-old woman diagnosed with pancreatic adenocarcinoma received EUS-HGS for relieving jaundice. The patient reported abdominal pain and chest tightness after the operation, with difficulty in urinating. X-ray suggested right-sided pleural effusion and dark green pleural effusion was drained out. However, the patient also developed dark green urine, which appeared everyday afternoon and disappeared automatically after intravenous treatment. The previous pleural effusion disappeared after one week, but later the patient showed an increase of ascites, and the lesions were compartmentalized and encapsulated internally.

conclusionPostoperative surveillance after EUS-HGS must be emphasized to check for in order to prevent severe and hidden complications.
