Ectopic duodenal variceal bleed successfully treated with TIPS and 2 years follow-up: A Case Report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Duodenal varices are an uncommon presentation of portal hypertension and can result in significant gastrointestinal bleeding with a high mortality. Diagnosis can be difficult and therapeutic options limited. We present a case of upper gastrointestinal bleeding in a woman aged 54 years with primary biliary cholangitis who was ultimately diagnosed with ectopic duodenal variceal bleed, which was successfully treated with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt provide an effective treatment for ectopic duodenal variceal bleed caused by liver cirrhosis, though interventional radiologists need to remain aware of and vigilant for the complications and risks of this treatment option.
