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

A 33-year-old man presented with hepatic encephalopathy and was diagnosed to have a noncirrhotic extrahepatic portosystemic shunt (NCPSS). He presented with abdominal pain 16 months after the NCPSS diagnosis. Computed tomography revealed thrombosis between the intrahepatic portal vein and the left internal iliac vein, including the NCPSS, and varices of the sigmoid colon. Thrombosis was treated with danaparoid sodium and antithrombin III followed by edoxaban. After treatment, the thrombosis disappeared from the intrahepatic portal vein, but it remained in the NCPSS. The sigmoid colon varices were followed up without any treatment. Follow-up is needed in NCPSS patients in order to make an early detection of complications.
