Gastric antral vascular ectasia in a patient with lupus undergoing hemodialysis: a case report.
Article in BMC nephrology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundGastric antral vascular ectasia (GAVE), associated with autoimmune diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus, and hepatic or renal disorders, is a rare cause of gastrointestinal bleeding. We report the case of a patient with lupus erythematosus undergoing hemodialysis with an uncorrectable anemia caused by GAVE. CASE PRESENTATION: A 76-year-old Korean woman with lupus undergoing hemodialysis frequently complained of symptoms or signs associated with anemia, such as dizziness, dyspnea, hypotension, melena, and hematemesis. Gastrointerstinal endoscopy revealed multiple erythematous and hyperemic mucosal lesions at the distal antrum without active bleeding, a finding compatible with GAVE. Although she frequently complained of symptoms or signs associated with anemia and had frequent gastrointestinal endoscopies with or without pre-emptive argon plasma coagulation, her clinical status is relatively stable, and she is undergoing maintenance hemodialysis without anticoagulants.
conclusionThis clinical case suggests that GAVE should be considered as a cause of the anemia resistant to erythropoiesis-stimulating agents and iron supplementation in patients with chronic kidney disease and lupus.
