A case of jejunal GIST revealed by hematemesis: Unusual situation.

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
introductionGastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are rare tumors of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, which can occur in majorly stomach, and rarely in the small intestine, rectum, and large intestine. We report a jejunal GIST presented with massive hematemesis in the current study. CASE PRESENTATION: A 39-years-old male, without any underlying history, was presented to our center with the complaint of massive hematemesis. Given the unstable hemodynamics of the patient, an upper GI endoscopy was requested, associated with a large amount of blood in the duodenal bulb without any sign of bleeding. The patient was sent to the operation room, and after laparotomy, a mass was seen in the jejunum, revealed as GIST after pathological study. DISCUSSION: Small-intestine-related etiologies are rare conditions related to upper GI bleeding (UGIB). Jejunal GIST usually manifests as asymptomatic subepithelial mass and is associated with abdominal discomfort or GI bleeding. Sudden unset bleeding is a rare manifestation of jejunal GIST, but it can be associated with the emergency outcome and may need emergency intervention.
conclusionUGIB can occur in jejunal GIST, which should be considered in the management of UGIB.
