1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Lower gastrointestinal bleeding (LGIB) can be caused by a variety of causes. Pseudoaneurysms have been described as a rare etiology of LGIB and are associated with pancreatic pseudocysts that involve adjacent vasculature. Our study describes a 38-year-old man with recent severe coronavirus disease 2019 and necrotizing pancreatitis presenting with hematochezia and blood clots by gastrostomy-jejunostomy. Initial flexible sigmoidoscopy did not elicit an etiology for the LGIB. Recurrent hematochezia prompted colonoscopy and angiography, which demonstrated a pseudoaneurysm in the marginal artery of Drummond as the source. Our case highlights the importance of repeat evaluation of gastrointestinal bleeding of unknown etiology.
