Endoscopic management of bleeding gastric varices--an updated overview.
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Gastric varices (GVs) are known to bleed massively and often difficult to manage with conventional techniques. This article aims to overview the endoscopic methods for the management of acute gastric variceal bleeding, especially the advantages and limits of GV obliteration with tissue adhesives, by comparison with band ligation and other direct endoscopic techniques of approach. The results of indirect radiological and surgical techniques of GV treatment are shortly discussed. A special attention is payed to the emerging role of endoscopic ultrasound in the therapy of bleeding GV, in the confirmation of its eradication and in follow-up strategies.
