A Rare Case of Gastro-Caval Fistula Due to Penetrating Trauma: A Vital Emergency.

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
In the literature no case of gastro-caval fistula due to penetrating trauma has been reported. We aimed to present a case of gastro-caval fistula presenting with massive hematemesis after a penetrating injury. A 20-year-old male patient applied to the emergency department with a complaint of projectile hematemesis after a knife penetrated the epigastric region. Contrast-enhanced abdominal computerized tomography (CT) showed a large hematoma around the inferior vena cava (IVC) and a fistula tract extending between the IVC and the gastric antrum. The patient underwent vena cava ligation and primary gastric repair. The patient, who was hypotensive and intubated in the post-operative intensive care unit, died on the second day after the operation. Because of the risk of sudden hypotension and shock from massive bleeding, gastro-caval fistula should be kept in mind in penetrating trauma; a rapid diagnosis should be made using a contrast-enhanced CT scan.
