Aortic Valve Stenosis, a Precipitating Factor of Recurrent Bleed in Colonic Angiodysplasia: A Literature Review.
Review in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Angiodysplasia (also known as angioectasia) is a lesion characterized by abnormal, dilated small blood vessels in the mucosa and submucosal layers of the GI tract. With the estimated low incidence of active GI bleeding from these lesions, angiodysplasia can be challenging to diagnose. The presence of aortic stenosis has increased the recognition rate of angiodysplasia, especially in the elderly. Despite the associations between aortic stenosis and angiodysplasia (Heyde's syndrome) revealed in several studies, the etiology of Heyde syndrome is still debatable, which has led to the proposition of several hypotheses that are reviewed in this article. This activity will help review the meaning of Heyde's syndrome, epidemiology, proposed pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management by surveying articles published between 1955 and 2021 on PubMed. We used search terms such as "colonic angiodysplasia," "arteriovenous malformation," "Heyde syndrome," "refractory gastrointestinal bleed," "aortic valve stenosis," and "acquired von Willebrand disease." Findings revealed an association between aortic stenosis and lower gastrointestinal (GI) bleed.
