Trust Your Instinct-Lower Intestinal Bleeding Caused by Ehlers-Danlos-Syndrome.
Article in JPGN reports, 2022. 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
We report a 2.5-year-old boy who was presented with acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding. Emergency endoscopy showed two active mucosal bleeding sites that were successfully clipped. Initially, multiple intestinal angiodysplasias were considered, ruled out by a second control endoscopy. Here, multiple superficial lesions were observed that bled upon contact by the endoscope, suggestive of connective tissue disorder. However, the patient showed no clinical dysmorphias, only hypermobility of the toes but no other symptoms typical for such disorders. Gene testing for Ehlers-Danlos-syndrome (EDS) revealed a pathogenic mutation in the COL3A1 causing loss-of-function of type 3-collagen. Thus, diagnosis of EDS type IV was established. Overall, EDS is a rare cause for intestinal bleeding in children, even in children with no other clinical symptoms. This case is the earliest presentation of EDS type IV with intestinal complications.
