Stent-graft implantation for hepatic arterial bleeding: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Review in CVIR endovascular, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
purposeThe aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to identify the technical and clinical outcomes of stent-graft implantation in patients with hepatic artery bleeding. MATERIALS AND
methodsThe PubMed database was searched for publications between 2000 and March 2025 evaluating patients treated with stent-graft implantation for hepatic arterial hemorrhage. The outcome measurements were technical (successful hemostasis with stent-grafts) and clinical success (no rebleeding from hepatic arteries), early mortality, and stent-graft patency during follow-up. A modified Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) was used to assess the quality of the included publications. An individual patient data meta-analysis was performed using the chi-square test or Fischer exact test to identify predictors of stent-graft patency.
resultsIn total, 351 patients from 22 studies were included. The mean NOS score was 5.4 ± 0.95. Most patients (n = 323) had bleeding after surgery. The technical success rate of stent-graft placement was 94.3%. Patients with technical failure were managed either by surgery (n = 10) or coil embolization of the hepatic artery (n = 10). Rebleeding from hepatic arteries was seen in 24 patients with a clinical success rate of 92.7%. The early mortality rate was 15.6%. Follow-up showed stent-graft patency in 76.5% (202 of 264) of the cases. Most of the stent-graft occlusions (51/62, 82.2%) were asymptomatic. No significant difference was seen in the rate of stent-graft patency between patients receiving acetylsalicylic acid or not, or dual antiplatelet treatment or not. Overlapping stent-grafts (p = 0.009) were significant risk factors for stent-graft occlusion.
conclusionStent-graft implantation in hepatic arterial bleeding is associated with high technical and clinical success rates. Despite the considerable rate of stent-graft occlusion during follow-up, occlusion is mostly asymptomatic, probably due to collateral development.
