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
Duodenal variceal bleeding is a rare form of variceal bleeding which may be fatal if left untreated. There are no specific guidelines available for their treatment. Medical management, surgical, endoscopic, and interventional radiological procedures have been utilized with varied outcomes. In this case summary we report the successful management of duodenal variceal bleeding in a patient with prior Roux-en-Y gastric bypass . The patient with history of cirrhosis presented with acute gastrointestinal bleeding. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy and colonoscopy could not locate the source of bleeding. Computed tomography of the abdomen demonstrated a large duodenal variceal complex. Interventional radiology (IR) treated the patient with a combination of percutaneous transhepatic embolization and subsequent transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt . No recurrence of gastrointestinal bleeding was noted at follow up. This case demonstrates that percutaneous transhepatic embolization along with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt may be effective treatment of duodenal variceal bleeding.
