Acute liver failure and infarction complicating TIPS placement.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Here in we report a case of acute liver failure with hepatic infarction after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS). An upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage patient with a medical history of alcoholic cirrhosis underwent a TIPS procedure. One day after TIPS, his alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels increased to 1214 U/L and 1511 U/L, respectively. Two days after TIPS, they peaked at alanine aminotransferase 8389 U/L and aspartate aminotransferase >7500 U/L, respectively. An emergent stent occlusion was performed on the second day. Portography showed that there were no portal vein branches or parenchymal stains on the edge of the right liver lobe. A CT scan demonstrated diffuse hepatic parenchyma, homogeneous hypodense lesion, and bilateral pleural effusion. The patient died of liver failure and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome 6 hours after the stent occlusion.
