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

Background: Acute gastrointestinal bleeding from a gastric lipoma is a very rare but severe condition, about 50 cases of which have been reported in the worldwide literature at the time of writing. It largely occurs from a lesion larger than 4 cm localized in the antrum of the stomach. Objective: We report the case of a patient with severe comorbidities presenting with melena and, on examination, a large subepithelial lesion in the gastric antrum, with a small ulceration and visible vessel at the summit. After stabilization and endoscopic hemostasis, the lesion was successfully treated by endoscopic submucosal dissection and a diagnosis of a large gastric antral lipoma was confirmed. We have collected similar case reports published worldwide and made a careful review of the literature and ESGE guidelines; we present these here with the aim of helping to find the best modality of treatment for future patients with large gastric lipoma. Conclusion: We present, to the best of our knowledge, the first case of acute gastrointestinal bleeding from a gastric lipoma in the Czech Republic, discuss the existing literature on similar cases, and make recommendations for the treatment of this condition in line with the relevant ESGE guidelines.
