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

backgroundGlue extrusion bleeding is a major complication of endoscopic cyanoacrylate glue injection for the treatment of gastric varices. However, its risk factors remain unclear.

aimsThis retrospective study aimed to evaluate the risk factors for bleeding associated with glue extrusion.

methodsThis study analyzed the medical data of cirrhotic patients who underwent endoscopic obliteration for gastric varices using cyanoacrylate glue between January 2016 and December 2022. The data within 1 year after therapy were carried out with logistic regression. A nomogram model was constructed based on the factors.

results269 patients were enrolled. Risk factors associated with glue extrusion bleeding included the volume of the glue (≥ 4 mL)(OR 1.289, 95% CI 1.051-1.580; P = 0.015), massive ascites (OR 5.645, 95% CI 2.260-14.097; P = 0.000), active hemorrhage during endoscopy (OR 2.830, 95% CI 1.284-6.234; P = 0.010), and the use of β-blockers was a protective factor (OR 0.185, 95% CI 0.07-0.485; P = 0.001). The nomogram model had good prediction accuracy, with an area under the curve of 0.74 (95% CI 0.658-0.822; P < 0.001).

conclusionMassive ascites, active hemorrhage during endoscopy, glue volume ≥ 4 mL, and the use of β-blockers are associated with glue extrusion bleeding. At-risk patients may benefit from controlling the volume of the glue, undergoing endoscopic ultrasound and using β-blockers.
