Inflammatory Fibroid Polyp of the Intrahepatic Biliary Tract: First Documented Case and Diagnostic Relevance of SpyGlass DS Cholangioscopy.
Article in Zeitschrift fur Gastroenterologie, 2026. 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
Abstract: A 19-year-old female presented with recurrent upper abdominal pain, pruritus, and jaundice. Imaging and endoscopic evaluation revealed a high-grade biliary stricture in the hilum and left hepatic bile duct with a tumor-like lesion. Repeated brush and fluoroscopic guided biopsies failed to yield a definitive diagnosis. Using SpyGlass DS single-operator cholangioscopy, targeted biopsies were obtained, indicating a benign mesenchymal neoplasm. Due to persistent cholestasis and suspected malignancy, left hemihepatectomy was performed. Final histopathology revealed an inflammatory fibroid polyp of the intrahepatic bile duct - a previously undocumented localization. The patient recovered fully after surgery. This case highlights that inflammatory fibroid polyps can present as biliary tumors and underscores the diagnostic value of SpyGlass DS cholangioscopy in evaluating indeterminate biliary strictures.
