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

Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT), or Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome, is a rare autosomal dominant vascular disorder characterized by mucocutaneous telangiectasias and visceral arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). We report the case of a 45-year-old male with a 20-year history of recurrent spontaneous epistaxis, chronic fatigue, and iron deficiency anemia, unresponsive to repeated nasal cauterizations. A strong family history of similar bleeding episodes in his mother and son heightened clinical suspicion. Examination revealed severe pallor without visible telangiectasias. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy demonstrated telangiectatic lesions, while imaging excluded pulmonary and cerebral AVMs. Genetic testing confirmed HHT type 2 by detecting a pathogenic
