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
backgroundThis study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of coil embolization of the superior rectal artery for both emergency and elective treatment of rectal bleeding caused by Goligher grade 4 hemorrhoids, where surgery is contraindicated.
methodsBetween 2019 and 2024, 18 patients (11 males, 7 females) with a mean age of 65±10.3 years were included in the study. Hemorrhoid grading was performed according to the Goligher classification, and rectal bleeding grading was assessed using the Paris bleeding severity score. Femoral artery access was utilized for embolization in all patients, and superior rectal artery branches were embolized exclusively with coils. All patients were treated electively except one who developed hemodynamic instability due to massive rectal bleeding while monitored in the intensive care unit. Follow-up was conducted via clinical examination and rectoscopy at 1, 3, and 6 months.
resultsAll patients underwent successful treatment with 100% technical success. No procedure-related ischemic complications or femoral artery puncture-related complications were observed in any patient. All patients were classified as grade 4 according to the Goligher classification prior to treatment. The mean Paris bleeding severity score was 6.6±1.1 before treatment, 3.4±1.5 at the first month, 3.8±1.61 at the third month, and 3.6±1.29 at the sixth month. Recurrence occurred in one patient at the first month and in another at the third month. Clinical success was 95% at the first month and 85% at the third and sixth months. Re-embolization was not performed in patients with recurrence.
conclusionIn conclusion, this study demonstrates that coil embolization of the superior rectal artery branches is a safe and effective minimally invasive procedure for both the emergency treatment of bleeding due to grade 4 hemorrhoidal disease and the elective treatment of patients unsuitable for surgical intervention.
