Endovascular treatment of a rare case of haemobilia caused by both pseudoaneurysm and a giant hepatic haemangioma.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Haemobilia is defined as bleeding from the biliary system due to abnormal communication between a blood vessel and the bile ducts. Melena or hematemesis, abdominal pain and jaundice represent the pathognomonic triad for haemobilia, but clinical presentation and aetiology of this entity are extremely variable. We report a case of a 50-year-old man with melena and anaemia and a clinical history of multivalvular endocarditis in which an extremely rare presence of 2 uncommon causes of haemobilia was found, such as a mycotic pseudoaneurysm and a giant hepatic haemangioma, both treated by transarterial embolization. In the management of haemobilia, TAE has been proven to be the treatment of choice because it combines a diagnostic angiography with therapeutic intervention in a minimally invasive, safe and effective way. Physician and radiologist should keep in mind also the uncommon aetiologies of haemobilia, knowing that the source of bleeding could be more than just one.
