TIPS: indications, Contraindications, and Evaluation.
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
purpose of reviewThis review summarizes the current and emerging indications, contraindications, and evaluation for TIPS. In the last three decades of use, there have been substantial changes and progress in this field, including the use of controlled-expansion, covered stents, which has broadened the clinical uses of TIPS. RECENT
findingsRecent findings have rapidly expanded the indications for TIPS, including emerging uses in hepatorenal syndrome, hepatopulmonary syndrome and before abdominal surgery. The widespread use of controlled-expansion, covered stents has decreased rates of post-TIPS hepatic encephalopathy, opening TIPS to a larger patient population. Overall, with newer stent technology and more research in this area, the clinical utility and potential of TIPS has rapidly expanded. Going forward, a renewed focus on randomized-control trials and long-term outcomes will be a crucial element to selecting appropriate TIPS recipients and recommending emerging indications for this procedure.
