Trans-splenic percutaneous glue embolization of bleeding gastric varices in the setting of malignant sinistral portal hypertension.
Article in CVIR endovascular, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Sinistral portal hypertension, also known as left-sided portal hypertension, is a rare cause of gastric variceal bleeding which occurs secondary to occlusion of the splenic vein. We present a case of venous occlusion and sinistral portal hypertension secondary to distal pancreatic cancer requiring treatment of gastric variceal bleeding. After failing conservative management, transvenous intervention was attempted, but a venous communication with the gastric varices was unable to be identified on multiple venograms. A percutaneous trans-splenic approach using a 21-G needle and ultrasound guidance was successful in directly accessing an intraparenchymal vein feeding the gastric varices, and glue embolization was performed directly through the access needle with excellent results.
