Buried bumper syndrome presenting with bleeding.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2018. 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
Buried bumper syndrome (BBS) is a relatively rare complication of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) feeding. In this paper, we report the case of a 74-year-old man who attended the emergency department with bleeding from the PEG tube site that was later confirmed by endoscopy to be BBS. The treatment consisted of a PEG tube replacement with a 10-day course of antibiotics. Furthermore, this report discusses possible signs, symptoms and physical examination signs suggesting BBS. It can cause serious complications that might sometimes be fatal. Therefore, the diagnosis needs to be done swiftly and the patient treatment to start without delay. BBS should always top the differentials of physicians once suspected.
