TIPS to Treat Chylous Ascites due to Cirrhosis.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Chylous ascites is a rare form of ascites that arises from the disruption of lymphatic flow. It develops in patients with liver cirrhosis secondary to portal hypertension. Treatment options include dietary modifications, pharmacological agents, and procedural interventions. Transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) placement has been proposed as a treatment option for chylous ascites in decompensated liver cirrhosis. Our case report discusses a patient with decompensated liver cirrhosis and diuretic-refractory ascites who ultimately developed chylous ascites that was treated by TIPS placement.
