Evaluation of Risk Factors for Bleeding After Ultrasound-Guided Liver Biopsy.
Article in International journal of general medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
purposeThis study was performed to analyze the risk factors for hemorrhagic complications after ultrasound-guided liver biopsies. PATIENTS AND
methodsIn this retrospective study, we reviewed 1193 ultrasound-guided percutaneous liver biopsies performed in our hospital from January 2018 to December 2020. Relevant patient characteristics, indications for biopsy, laboratory findings, biopsy technique, hemorrhagic complications, and pathologic outcomes were collected.
resultsWe analyzed 834 procedures performed on 807 patients with complete data. The bleeding group comprised 45 patients with post-procedure bleeding, and non-bleeding group comprising the remaining 789 patients. Univariate analysis showed that age (
conclusionSex and focal liver lesions did not affect the risk of post-procedure bleeding. The international normalized ratio and prothrombin time were associated with an increased incidence of bleeding; however, they had no predictive value. Age, number of needle passes, and platelet count were identified as reliable predictors of bleeding.
