Review of the Endoscopic, Surgical and Radiological Techniques of Treating Choledocholithiasis in Bariatric Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Patients and Proposed Management Algorithm.
Review in Obesity surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
Choledocholithiasis in post-surgical bariatric Roux-en-Y gastric bypass patients presents a significant challenge secondary to altered anatomy. We aim to review the existing management options including either endoscopic, surgical, percutaneous or hybrid means. Current literature suggests reasonably successful cannulation rates for single- or double-balloon ERCP ranging from 50 to 70% and 63-83%, respectively. The hybrid technique of laparoscopic transgastric ERCP has gained popularity with success rates ranging from 90 to 100%. Conventional laparoscopic techniques like transcystic duct and transcholedochal bile duct exploration are still useful options (i.e. high success rates of 81-100% and 83-96%, respectively). The role of percutaneous transhepatic choledochography remains limited although it can help with rapid bile duct decompression. If feasible, treatment pathways should progress from least to more invasive options as required.
