[Rectal bleeding: easy to overcome or still a challenge in proctology?]
Review in Der Chirurg; Zeitschrift fur alle Gebiete der operativen Medizen, 2019. 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
Rectal bleeding is a frequent symptom in proctology. In most cases frequent causes, such as anal fissures and hemorrhoidal disease can be diagnosed and treated using a structured patient history and basic proctological diagnostic assessment; however, it is not uncommon for proctitis to be the reason for rectal bleeding, which necessitates interdisciplinary diagnostics and treatment. In addition to proctitis associated with chronic inflammatory bowel disease, prolapse-induced, radiogenic, ischemic, infectious types and proctitis associated with sexually transmitted diseases represent important differential diagnoses. Moreover, rectal cancer has to be excluded as the cause of rectal bleeding. Finally, with appropriate diligence most causes of rectal bleeding can be securely identified and effectively managed; however, special circumstances can necessitate interdisciplinary diagnostics and management, including conservative, topical, interventional and surgical treatment options.
