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

introductionJejunal Dieulafoy lesions is a rare cause of gastrointestinal bleeding. Most cases are asymptomatic and require difficult surgical approaches even as endoscopic advancements have become available. CASE PRESENTATION: We describe the case of a 19-year-old female who suffered a massive lower gastrointestinal bleeding, was hemodynamically unstable and needed blood transfusions. We performed an intraoperative enteroscopy which revealed a jejunal Dieulafoy lesion and proceeded to surgically resect and repair it by anastomosis. There were no negative outcomes during the hospitalization. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Surgery is required in less than 5 % of such cases, when bleeding cannot be controlled by endoscopic approach, angiography or when these methods are not available.

conclusionIt is important to be aware of this lesion as a cause of gastrointestinal bleeding and differentiate it from other causes.
