Case Report: Gastric intramural hematoma with acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding in a child.

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
Gastric hematoma is an exceptionally rare condition in pediatric patients. It is characterized by the accumulation of blood within the gastric wall, resulting in the formation of a mass. Coagulopathy is the most common cause of gastric hematoma, although other etiologies include gastric ulcer, amyloidosis, pancreatitis, and splanchnic vascular aneurysms. However, the pathophysiology of gastric hematoma remains incompletely understood. It is presumed to be caused by ruptures of the submucosal vessels, leading to dissection of the muscular layer and the formation of a false lumen. Herein, we report the case of a 4 year-old girl who was admitted to our hospital with a large intragastric mass. She presented with hematemesis, and a large hematoma was visualized via gastroscopy. After treatment, the patient underwent a second follow-up gastroscopy, which showed that the gastric mass had subsided, and multiple gastric ulcers were found in the gastric wall. After excluding other causes, we considered that the gastric hematoma may have been caused by the ulcers. By discussing the clinical presentation and treatment options in this case, we hope to improve the understanding of pediatric gastric hematoma so that serious complications can be avoided in future cases.
