1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Transcatheter arterial embolization is the therapy of choice for recurrent peptic ulcer bleeding refractory to standard endoscopic hemostatic techniques. It offers a minimally invasive approach with high efficacy, lower mortality, and complication rates compared to surgery. However, rare adverse events attributed to coil migration including pulmonary embolism, stroke, myocardial infarction, and bowel obstruction have been reported. We report the case of a 72-year-old female with a massive duodenal ulcer bleed refractory to endoscopic hemostatic techniques of epinephrine injection and bipolar cautery. She had a successful transcatheter arterial embolization of the culprit vessels. Repeat esophagogastroduodenoscopy for increasing vasopressor requirements and transfusion unresponsive anemia revealed the visualization of the metallic coil in the duodenal ulcer base with no active bleeding which was successfully managed conservatively through multidisciplinary consultation.
