Superselective transcatheter arterial embolization of iatrogenic inferior epigastric artery after paracentesis: Unusual manifestation of hemoperitoneum.

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
introductionParacentesis is a safe procedure and can be performed as a therapy or diagnosis in cancer patients, liver cirrhosis, heart or liver failure. PRESENTATION OF CASE: 59-year-old man with alcoholic liver cirrhosis with ascites and coagulation abnormalities. After diagnostic paracentesis he presented hemodynamic instability with signs of hypovolemic shock and hemoperitoneum. Computed angiotomography with signs of active bleeding and pseudoaneurysm at the site of paracentesis. DISCUSSION: The interventional radiology unit was referred and submitted to arteriography, which demonstrated active bleeding from the left lower epigastric artery. It was successfully treated by transcatheter embolization with 100-300 μm PVA particles.
conclusionTranscatheter embolization with PVA particles is a fast, safe, minimally invasive, reliable method with a high technical success rate for the treatment of active bleeding resulting from injury to the lower epigastric artery.
