Role of Portosystemic Shunt and Portal Vein Stent in Managing Portal Hypertension Due to Hematological Diseases.
Article in Cureus, 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
introductionPatients with hematological diseases experience complications related to portal hypertension, including life-threatening complications such as variceal bleeding.
methodsWe analyzed the prognosis of patients with hematological diseases and portal hypertension treated with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (TIPS) or portal vein stents. We retrospectively assessed patients with hematological diseases and portal hypertension who had variceal bleeding. We evaluated the characteristics and prognosis of the enrolled patients. A total of 11 patients with hematological diseases who underwent TIPS, or portal vein stenting, were evaluated.
resultsThe median follow-up period was 420 days. Of the 11 patients, eight showed resolution of portal hypertension and its complications following TIPS, or stent insertion. One patient experienced rebleeding due to incomplete resolution of portal hypertension, and two other patients also experienced rebleeding because they underwent TIPS closure or revision due to repetitive hepatic encephalopathy.
conclusionPortosystemic shunt and stent installation are effective treatment options for portal hypertension due to hematological diseases.
