How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article presents data on the modern methods of treatment of cholecystisis complicated by choledocholithiasis. Methods of surgical treatment of common bile duct stones are increasing with the development of new technologies. Despite this, there is no clear consensus on the “gold standard” in treatment this disease. Old and new approaches include open surgical (including the mini-access method), laparoscopic and endoscopic procedures. The use of mini-invasive technology signifcantly reduces the number of postoperative complications, the period of postoperative rehabilitation of patients, and the mortality rate. The availability of technical resources and professional experience of experts may also play a crucial role in choice of treatment strategy.
