Secondary choledocholithiasis caused by fish bones: a case report and review of the literature.
Review in Journal of medical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundForeign body in the common bile duct can act as a nidus for stone formation, leading to secondary choledocholithiasis. Currently there are very few reviews concerning biliary stones caused by foreign bodies; this article may offer some help for relevant situations. CASE PRESENTATION: We retrospectively analyzed the case of an 89-year-old Chinese (Han ethnicity, Asian) male patient with secondary choledocholithiasis caused by fish bones. We also present a review of the literature regarding choledocholithiasis caused by foreign bodies using "foreign body case" and "common bile duct stone" as the search terms in the PubMed database. The analysis of patient demographics, foreign body origins, clinical presentations, treatments, and outcomes may provide some suggestions for the management of those specific biliary foreign body cases.
conclusionEven years after cholecystectomy, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, or foreign body ingestion, biliary complications secondary to foreign body migration should still be considered. The clinical presentation of most biliary foreign bodies is similar to choledocholithiasis. endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography can serve as the preferred treatment modality. When endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography fails, repeating endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography or conversion to surgery should be considered.
