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) with sphincterotomy is an established treatment for choledocholithiasis but may rarely lead to pyogenic liver abscess (PLA). We report the case of a 72-year-old woman with a history of biliary stenting who presented with jaundice and cholestasis. ERCP with lithotripsy and sphincterotomy successfully cleared multiple stones, but she developed high fever and leukocytosis within 48 h. Imaging revealed a 6-cm abscess in segment 7 of the liver. Ultrasound-guided percutaneous catheter drainage was performed, yielding purulent material that cultured
