A hidden cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2011. 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
Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs) are a subset of gastrointestinal (GI) mesenchymal tumours of varying differentiation and represent 1-3% of all gastrointestinal malignancies--70% occur in the stomach. Previously, these tumours were classified as GI leiomyomas, leiomyosarcomas, leiomyoblastomas or schwannomas on the basis of histological findings and the fact that these tumours apparently originate in the muscularis propria layer of the intestinal wall. With the advent of immunohistochemical staining techniques and ultrastructural evaluation, GISTs are now recognised as a distinct group of mesenchymal tumours. Most cases are sporadic although some families with hereditary GISTs have been described. We report a coinicidental finding of GIST in an asymptomatic patient and subsequent management.
