Annoyed with Haemorrhoids? Risks of the Emborrhoid Technique.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Haemorrhoids, a common ailment afflicting mostly Western patients, can produce bothersome symptoms, in particular pain, pruritus, and bleeding. There is a wide choice of surgical treatment options available for haemorrhoids in patients that cannot be treated with medical therapy, such as those that are prolapsed. Many patients refuse surgery due to the fear of potential complications; to overcome this obstacle, novel alternative techniques have been developed in recent years that are focussed on ligation or occlusion of haemorrhoidal arterial blood flow. We describe a patient who developed recto-sigmoidal ischaemia after embolization of the haemorrhoidal arteries, known as the "emborrhoid" technique, with persistence of rectal bleeding and progressive rectal stenosis.
