Behcet's disease manifesting as esophageal variceal bleeding: A case report.
Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundBehcet's disease (BD) is a chronic disease characterized by oral and vulvar ulcers as well as eye and skin damage and involves multiple systems. It presents as an alternating process of repeated attacks and remissions. Esophageal venous rupture and bleeding caused by BD is rarely reported at home and abroad. This paper reports a case of bleeding from oesophageal varices caused by BD, aiming to provide an additional dimension for considering the cause of bleeding from esophageal varices in the future. CASE SUMMARY: A 38-year-old female patient was admitted due to a gradual increase in shortness of breath and chest tightness after the activity, and was admitted to our hospital for treatment. After admission, relevant examinations showed that the patient had multiple blood clots. Four days after admission, she suddenly experienced massive hematemesis. Emergency esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed bleeding from esophageal and gastric varices. The patient had no history of viral hepatitis or drinking habits, and no history of special genetic diseases or congenital vascular diseases. There is no obvious abnormality in liver function. After reviewing the medical history, it was found that the patient had recurred oral ulcers since childhood, ulcers were visible in the perineum during menstruation, and there was an intermittent red nodular rash and uveitis. The current skin acupuncture reaction is positive, combined with the evaluation of the external hospital and our hospital, the main diagnosis is BD. She received methylprednisolone, cyclophosphamide, immunomodulation, acid suppression, gastric protection, and anticoagulation and anti-infection treatments, and was discharged from the hospital. During the 1-year follow-up period, the patient did not vomit blood again.
conclusionThis case highlights bleeding from esophageal varices caused by BD, aiming to provide an additional dimension concerning the cause of bleeding from esophageal varices in the future.
