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

backgroundEarly transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts (TIPS) is a therapeutic option for acute variceal bleeding (AVB), offering a low risk of rebleeding. However, the long-term outcomes of early TIPS remain unclear.

aimTo evaluate the long-term outcomes for early TIPS compared with standard treatment in patients with cirrhosis and AVB.

methodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients with AVB who underwent early TIPS or standard treatment between January 2014 and December 2023. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS).

resultsA total of 37 patients with AVB underwent early TIPS, while 65 patients received standard treatment. Compared with the standard treatment group, the rates of uncontrolled bleeding or rebleeding in the early TIPS group were significantly lower (10.8%

conclusionWhile early TIPS is not associated with a long-term survival benefit compared with standard treatment for AVB, it is associated with reduced risks of rebleeding and ascites.
