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

backgroundPost-endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) bleeding is a serious complication, and related case reports have described various bleeding events following ERCP, including injury to the right gastroepiploic artery, bleeding from biliary varices, retroperitoneal hematoma in liver transplant recipients and subcapsular liver hematoma after ERCP. CASE SUMMARY: We present a case of a 55-year-old male patient who developed post-ERCP hemorrhage one month after undergoing ERCP, endoscopic sphincterotomy, and bile duct stone removal for acute biliary pancreatitis. The patient presented with upper abdominal pain and melena, and imaging studies revealed high-density shadows in the intrahepatic bile duct, gallbladder, and lower segment of the common bile duct, suggestive of bleeding. Emergency interventional embolization was performed, and subsequent endoscopic and interventional therapies were implemented to control the bleeding. The patient's hemoglobin levels gradually improved, and biliary indicators normalized.

conclusionPost-ERCP bleeding can result from various etiologies, and the rupture of variant vessels is a noteworthy topic warranting further exploration.
