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

Embolization coil migration to the gastrointestinal tract is a rare complication. This report describes our experience of coil migration in the stomach and spontaneous excretion. A 77-year-old man, who was diagnosed with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with multiple lymph node metastases, had a bleeding left gastric artery and splenic artery pseudoaneurysm associated with an abdominal lymph node mass, that was treated by coil embolization, after which the coil migrated into the stomach. Because there were no complications such as active bleeding or peritonitis, our patient was followed carefully, and excretion of the coil was documented. No standard management exists for migrated coils. Conservative treatment is an option, as in this case.
