Current Perspectives on Endoscopic Nasobiliary Drainage: Optimizing Patient Management and Preventing Complications.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2025. 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
Endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD) is a well-established technique for biliary decompression in both benign and malignant conditions. Over the past decades, its role has been extensively evaluated in comparison with endoscopic biliary stenting and percutaneous transhepatic biliary drainage. ENBD provides distinct clinical advantages, including real-time monitoring of bile output, the possibility to perform irrigation, and the ability to collect bile samples for cytological analysis. However, it also presents specific challenges such as patient discomfort, tube dislodgement, and the need for careful maintenance. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence from randomized controlled trials, retrospective cohorts, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses, highlighting the main indications, technical innovations, comparative outcomes with alternative drainage techniques, and strategies to prevent complications. Furthermore, it discusses emerging approaches aimed at improving patient tolerance, procedural efficiency, and environmental sustainability, offering an updated framework for optimizing patient management in both benign and malignant biliary obstruction.
