Description
Wu and co-authors pool web-tied trials to rank tricks for hard bile duct entry. Hard entry drags scope work long and lifts post-scope harms. Wire and cut tricks both aim to ease that entry step. Which trick tops the set had stayed split in past trials. Three banks gave twin trials to the start of 2024. Hosts were grown folk with a hard entry mark in the trials.
Seven arms met in the web: check, two cut forms, two late cuts, a cross cut, and twin wire. Chief marks were deep entry rate and post-scope harms. Harms span gut flare, bleeds, tears, and germ hits post the scope. In sum, 17 lot trials with 2,189 hosts fed the web. Web sums set the arms in rank by each mark.
