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

Gastric varices account for 10%-30% of all variceal bleeds and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Interventional radiology-guided therapies such as balloon-occluded retrograde transvenous obliteration and coil-assisted retrograde transvenous obliteration can provide hemostasis when traditional endoscopic treatments such as cyanoacrylate injection fail. However, their applicability in certain cases can be limited because of anatomical constraints. We describe the use of endoscopic ultrasound-guided coil and absorbable gelatin sponge injection for the treatment of bleeding gastric varices arising from pancreatitis-induced splenic vein thrombosis not amenable to interventional radiology-guided therapies.
