Life-threatening upper gastrointestinal bleeding caused by pancreatic pseudocysts: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
rationalePancreatic pseudocysts are fluid-filled sacs that typically develop as a complication of pancreatitis or abdominal trauma. These lesions are relatively rare, with an estimated incidence of 0.5 to 1 case per 100,000 people annually. While asymptomatic pseudocysts often resolve with conservative management, symptomatic cases or those complicated by infection, hemorrhage, or obstruction generally require surgical intervention. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 45-year-old man had recurrent black stools and vomiting blood. Initially diagnosed with gastritis, his condition worsened despite treatment, leading to severe bleeding. DIAGNOSES: Imaging showed a suspected stomach hematoma, but the cause was a pancreatic pseudocyst eroding the stomach wall and a gastric artery.
interventionsEmergency surgery. OUTCOMES: The operation was successful, and the patient made a full recovery. Follow-up imaging at 2 months confirmed complete resolution of the gastric mass. LESSONS: This rare case highlights that pancreatic pseudocysts can cause major GI bleeding. Unexplained bleeding patients should be evaluated for pancreatic disease, especially with a history of pseudocysts.
