Percutaneous transcatheter embolisation of active haemorrhage following radiofrequency ablation of hepatocellular carcinoma.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
A 72-year-old woman with hepatitis C virus cirrhosis underwent a surveillance ultrasound examination which identified a new hepatic lesion. A workup triphasic CT examination demonstrated a 3.7 cm lesion at the hepatic dome with arterial enhancement and portal venous washout consistent with hepatocellular carcinoma. She subsequently proceeded for treatment with radiofrequency ablation (RFA). RFA was technically successful, but the patient became hypotensive and tachycardic postprocedure. A CT angiogram demonstrated active arterial intraperitoneal haemorrhage from the RFA site. The patient returned to the interventional suite for catheter angiography which confirmed the presence of active haemorrhage from the hepatic arterial branch supplying segment VIII. The bleeding vessel was selectively catheterised with a microcatheter, and successfully embolised with 250-355 µm polyvinyl alcohol particles.
