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

The present case report concerns an 80-year-old obese woman with liver cirrhosis who presented with acute ileal conduit stomal hemorrhage. Due to the inherent challenges associated with ultrasound visualization of the portal vein in obese patients, a direct percutaneous approach was employed over the conventional transhepatic route. The feeding ileal vein was directly punctured under ultrasound guidance. A 5Fr sheath and a balloon microcatheter were placed, followed by the injection of a mixture of gelatin sponge particles and 5% ethanolamine oleate iopamidol under balloon occlusion. No recurrent bleeding occurred during the 6-month follow-up period. This case suggests that direct percutaneous embolization with a mixture of gelatin sponge particles and 5% ethanolamine oleate iopamidol may offer a safe and effective treatment option for stomal varices.
