Haemosuccus pancreaticus and seven episodes of recurrent unlocalised upper gastrointestinal bleeding.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2024. 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
Upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding is a common medical condition that results in extensive morbidity and mortality, as well as substantial healthcare costs. While there is variation among society and consensus guidelines, the approaches to assessment and evaluation are generally consistent. Our case describes a man in his 40s who presented with seven episodes of recurrent upper GI bleeding over 2 years secondary to haemosuccus pancreaticus. While rare, this case study highlights key principles to the initial diagnostic approach that, in appropriate clinical contexts, should be applied to patients with unlocalised upper GI bleeding. We further perform a complete systematic review of similar cases available in PubMed (36 patients in 24 case reports) to further refine these diagnostic principles.
