Acquired Factor VIII Inhibitor Presenting as Occult GI Bleeding.
Article in Case reports in hematology, 2018. 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
An acquired coagulation factor deficiency is characterized by acquired autoantibodies against specific clotting factors in those without diagnosed hemophilia. It is a relatively rare condition with an incidence of approximately one case per million per year. We present a case report of an elderly male who initially presented with an occult GI bleed that was identified with a positive fecal occult blood test result. This is the first case reported to our knowledge of an acquired factor inhibitor deficiency presenting in this manner. We postulate the importance of acquired factor inhibitors in the setting of unexplained anemia given absence of overt clinical symptoms that could contribute to aggravate an established GI bleed, especially in the elderly population.
