Massive Gastrointestinal Bleeding From a Jejunal Dieulafoy's Lesion.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Dieulafoy's lesion is a histologically normal arteriole that has failed to progressively narrow as it navigates through the submucosa. It is a rare cause of massive gastrointestinal bleeding, occurring most often in the stomach, with only 1% of lesions occurring in the jejunum. We present the case of a 21-year-old man who presented with massive hematochezia ultimately attributed to a distal jejunal Dieulafoy's lesion, identified via an intraoperative surgically assisted deep enteroscopy. This case is unique not only regarding the unusual location of the lesion but also regarding the multidisciplinary approach necessitated for the management of this catastrophic hemorrhage that avoided surgical resection.
