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
With the spread of minimally invasive surgery (MIS), various MIS-specific iatrogenic complications have been reported; however, subserosal bile infiltration of the gallbladder has not been documented. We report a case of subserosal bile infiltration occurring during robot-assisted radical right nephrectomy for clear cell renal carcinoma after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy. Following right kidney resection, dark green discoloration of the gallbladder was observed. Reviewing the operative video revealed that the color change developed during retraction with a snake retractor. Although no bile spillage was observed, laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed because gallbladder injury was suspected. During dissection from the gallbladder bed, bile was observed within the subserosal layer, confirming subserosal bile infiltration. Subserosal bile infiltration is a rare form of gallbladder injury; however, it may progress to bile peritonitis and should be recognized as a potential complication requiring careful attention during surgery.
