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

Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is widely used for diagnosing and treating biliary and pancreatic disorders, yet it carries a risk of complications, including the rare development of subcapsular hepatic hematoma (SHH). We report the case of a 32-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain following ERCP for gallstone pancreatitis. She was afebrile and hemodynamically stable but appeared pale and exhibited right upper quadrant and epigastric tenderness. Laboratory evaluation revealed a hemoglobin drop to 8.6 g/dL. Computed tomography demonstrated a large right-lobe subcapsular hepatic hematoma measuring 15.5 × 7.5 cm with associated air locules. Despite initial conservative management, the hematoma enlarged, and the patient subsequently underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy with evacuation of the infected hematoma 3 days after admission. This case highlights the importance of early clinical vigilance and prompt imaging in the detection of post-ERCP complications. Although conservative therapy may be effective in stable cases, surgical intervention becomes essential when complications progress or infection develops.
