Successful radiological embolization of a low output jejunal enterocutaneous fistula using a cyanoacrylate and lipiodol mixture.
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
Enterocutaneous fistulas (ECFs) are a significant complication of abdominal surgery which present a significant therapeutic challenge for clinicians. Definitive surgical treatment of these fistulas is not without significant risk, which both patients and clinicians would seek to avoid. We present a case of successful treatment of a low output jejunal ECF by percutaneous embolization using an ethiodized oil and n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate glue mixture in a 40-year-old man who developed an ECF after inadvertent jejunostomy tube removal. This case demonstrates the technique and suitability of a widely available embolic agent for treatment of proximal small bowel ECFs. In addition, the case illustrates the potential of minimally invasive interventional radiological procedures in the management of ECFs, particularly in high-risk patients, as an alternative to surgery.
