Obstruction of the hepatic veins-a rare case of Budd-Chiari syndrome: A case report.
Article in SAGE open medical case reports, 2025. 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
Budd-Chiari syndrome is a disorder that is characterized by obstruction of hepatic venous outflow, with thrombosis being the primary cause of the obstruction. This case report describes a 47-year-old Indian male presenting with distension of the abdomen and umbilical swelling for 1 year. Investigations revealed hepatic venous outflow obstruction and a partial web with focal calcification in the Inferior Vena Cava. Despite using standard medical therapeutic options such as diuretics, beta-blockers, and anticoagulation, his ascites remained uncontrolled. Interventional radiology with inferior vena cava venoplasty using 10 and 14 mm angioplasty balloons was performed, leading to the resolution of inferior vena cava stenosis and improved condition. Post-procedure, the patient was put on anticoagulation therapy and was discharged in good condition. This case highlights the successful management of Budd-Chiari syndrome with inferior vena cava occlusion using a multidisciplinary approach combining interventional radiology and medical therapy.
