Gastroesophageal Variceal Bleed Post Transcatheter Embolisation of the Left Gastric Artery.
Article in Cureus, 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
Chronic pancreatitis has several complications that can lead to upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB). Patients with chronic pancreatitis presenting with evidence of UGIB require careful assessment and investigation. We report a case of a patient presenting with anaemia and general fatigue with a background of chronic pancreatitis. He had known non-cirrhotic portal hypertension secondary to a chronic splenic vein thrombus. The patient was found to have a left gastric artery pseudoaneurysm. Following embolisation, the patient had episodes of haematemesis, and oesophagogastroduodenoscopy (OGD) identified bleeding gastroesophageal varices (GOV). We hypothesise a mechanism of increased blood flow into the splenic venous system post-embolisation, leading to variceal rupture.
