Preoperative interventional radiology in penetrating posterior abdominal trauma with bowel injury: A case report.
Article in Acute medicine & surgery. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Penetrating posterior abdominal injuries pose a significant risk of retroperitoneal and intra-abdominal damage. Although interventional radiology (IR) is commonly used for hemorrhage control in trauma cases, the role of IR in penetrating bowel injuries is unclear because these injuries often require urgent surgical repair, limiting the use of IR as a primary intervention. Case Presentation: A 76-year-old man sustained a penetrating posterior abdominal injury from a pruning shear, damaging the descending colon and lumbar arteries. Preoperative contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed active extravasation into the colonic lumen and a retroperitoneal hematoma. A two-stage approach was implemented, starting with transcatheter arterial embolization of the lumbar artery, followed by surgical repair of the descending colon. Preoperative IR effectively controlled bleeding, enabling safe and efficient surgery. Conclusion: Preoperative IR can help manage penetrating posterior abdominal injuries, including bowel damage, when active extravasation complicates surgery.
