Splenic Hematoma as a Rare Complication of Colonoscopy; a Case Report.
Article in Archives of academic emergency medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Splenic injuries after colonoscopy are an uncommon complication, which can lead to potentially unfortunate outcomes. Their management depends on the type of the splenic damage (hematomas, lacerations, rupture). We describe the case of a woman who visited the Emergency Department due to abdominal pain and pre-syncopal condition, which had occurred 12 hours after she underwent a colonoscopy. An abdominal computed tomography scan showed a splenic hematoma and a hemoperitoneum. An emergency splenectomy was performed successfully. Emergency physicians, who are at the forefront of diagnosing and treating patients, should consider this post-endoscopic complication in order to implement a prompt treatment.
