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

Bile duct leak (BDL) is a common complication of hepatobiliary surgery, including cholecystectomy, hepatic resection, and liver transplantation. Timely recognition and effective management are essential to prevent serious complications such as peritonitis, intra-abdominal abscesses, and sepsis. Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) has become the first-line diagnostic and therapeutic approach. Despite the high overall success rate, the optimal treatment strategies remain a subject of ongoing debate. This review summarizes the existing classification systems and current endoscopic management of BDLs, including drainage strategies, optimal timing of ERCP and stent removal, and approaches for complex cases.
