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
purposeTo assess the feasibility of multi-detector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) volumetry for the quantification and grading of acute non-cerebral, non-gastrointestinal bleeding.
methodsThis retrospective, single-center study investigated consecutive patients with MDCTA positive for active non-cerebral, non-gastrointestinal bleeding, between January 2020 and June 2020. Outcome measures were the quantification of active extravasation at the arterial and parenchymal phase using volumetry measurements, the calculation of active bleeding rate and bleeding grading, 30-day mortality rate, identification of independent predictors of mortality and correlation between volumetric analysis, various clinical features, and the decision to proceed with an intervention.
resultsIn total 30 patients (17 females; 56.6%; mean age 70.0 ± 16.0 years) were analyzed. Volumetric analysis was feasible in all cases resulting in excellent inter-observer variability (interclass correlation coefficient 0.999 for arterial and 0.919 for venous volume measurements). Mean volume of contrast extravasation was 1.06 ± 1.09 ml and 3.07 ± 2.48 ml at the arterial and parenchymal phases, respectively. Mean bleeding rate was 6.95 ± 7.82 ml/min. High bleeding volume at arterial phase (grade 4 bleeding) was the only independent predictor of 30-day mortality (HR 1383.58; p = 0.042). There was a positive correlation between bleeding volume at arterial phase (r
conclusionsMDCTA volumetric analysis for the quantification and grading of acute hemorrhage was feasible with excellent inter-observer agreement. The proposed bleeding grading system could optimize decision making and predict clinical outcomes.
