1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Hereditary hemorrhagic teleangectasia (HHT, or Rendu-Osler-Weber disease) is a rare inherited syndrome, characterized by arterio-venous malformations (AVMs or Telangiectasia). The most important and common manifestation is nose bleeds (epistaxis). The telangiectasias (small AVMs) are most evident on the lips, tongue, buccal mucosa, face, chest, and fingers, however; large arterio-venous malformations can also occur in the lungs, liver, pancreas, or brain. Telangiectasias in the upper gastrointestinal tract are known to occur, however data regarding possible small-bowel involvement is limited due to technical difficulties in visualizing the entire gastrointestinal tract. The occurrence of AVMs in the stomach and small bowel can result in chronic bleeding and anaemia. Less frequently, this may occur due to bleeding from oesophageal varices, as patients with HHT can develop hepatic parenchymal AVMs or vascular shunts which cause hepatic cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Gastroenterologists have a crucial role in the management of these patients, however difficulties remain in the detection and management of complications of HHT in the gastrointestinal tract.
