Rebleeding Risk of Acute Hemorrhagic Rectal Ulcer: A Multicenter Retrospective Study.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2024. 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
Objective Acute hemorrhagic rectal ulcer (AHRU) is characterized by sudden, painless, and massive bleeding from rectal ulcers. To date, few studies have analyzed the risk factors for AHRU rebleeding. In this study, we clarified the risk factors of rebleeding after initial hemostasis of AHRU through a multicenter study. Methods A total of 149 patients diagnosed with AHRU between January 2015 and May 2020 at 3 medical centers were enrolled. We retrospectively investigated the following factors: age, sex, body mass index (BMI), performance status (PS), Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), comorbidities, medications, laboratory examinations, endoscopic findings, view of the entire rectum on endoscopy, hemostasis method, blood transfusion history, shock, instructions for posture change after initial hemostasis, and clinical course. Results Rebleeding was observed in 35 (23%) of 149 patients. A multivariate analysis showed that significant factors for rebleeding were PS 4 [odds ratio (OR), 5.23; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.97-13.9; p=0.001], a blood transfusion history (OR, 3.66; 95% CI, 1.41-9.51; p=0.008), low an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) levels (OR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.97-0.99; p=0.001), poor view of the whole rectum on endoscopy (OR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.12-0.90; p=0.030), and use of monopolar hemostatic forceps (OR, 4.89; 95% CI, 1.37-17.4; p=0.014). Conclusion Factors associated with rebleeding of AHRU were a poor PS (PS 4), blood transfusion, a low eGFR, poor view of the whole rectum on endoscopy, and the use of monopolar hemostatic forceps.
