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

Background: Mirizzi Syndrome (MS) is a rare cause of biliary obstruction. While laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the standard treatment, severe inflammation often necessitates subtotal cholecystectomy to prevent bile duct injury (BDI). However, retained stones in the gallbladder remnant or cystic duct can cause recurrent obstruction, termed post-cholecystectomy Mirizzi Syndrome (PCMS). Case Report: A 34-year-old female presented with PCMS 6 years after undergoing a subtotal cholecystectomy for MS. Despite initial conservative management, definitive resolution required secondary surgical intervention. Conclusion: As subtotal cholecystectomy becomes more frequent to avoid BDI, the incidence of PCMS is expected to rise. Clinicians must maintain a high index of suspicion. Management should be multidisciplinary; however, surgery remains the definitive treatment when conservative approaches fail.
