Article in Ulusal travma ve acil cerrahi dergisi = Turkish journal of trauma & emergency surgery : TJTES, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe aim of the study was to investigate the use of prophylactic nitroglycerin patch in patients who applied to our clinic with occlusion icter and underwent endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for complications such as pancreatitis, bleeding, perforation that may occur during and after the procedure, duration of the procedure, length of hospitalization, precut and selective cannulation rates, and mortality.
methodsPatients were searched retrospectively using the hospital database. Patients under the age of 18, patients with poor general condition and patients treated under emergency conditions were excluded from the study. The effects of the drug on morbidity, mortality, duration of procedure, length of hospital stay, and cannulation techniques were investigated in patient groups with and without nitroglycerin patch.
resultsIt was observed that using nitroglycerin decreased the precut probability by 2.28 times (p<0.001), and decreased periop-erative bleeding by 3.4 times (p<0.001). 75.1% selective cannulation was observed in the group not administered nitroglycerin, this rate was determined as 87.3% in the group administered nitroderm(p<0.001). In the regression model, it was observed that the presence of nitroderm increased the probability of selective cannulation 2.21 times (p<0.001). The effects of nitroglycerin use on mortality, patient's history of malignancy, presence of stones and mud, gender, age, post-operative pancreatitis, and perioperative bleeding variables were evaluated by regression analysis, and age increased mortality by 1.09 (p=0.023).
conclusionIt has been shown that the use of prophylactic nitroglycerin patch in ERCP procedure increases the prophylactic selective cannulation rate, shortens the precut rate, pre-operative bleeding, hospital stay, and procedure time.
