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

backgroundWhile varices and variceal bleeds are well-known and feared complications of advanced cirrhosis and portal hypertension, omental variceal bleed are a rare sequala even in patients with known esophageal or gastric varices. While rare, omental varices pose a risk for hemoperitoneum if ruptured, which is a life-threatening complication with high mortality rates despite surgical intervention. CASE SUMMARY: This report reviews the case of a patient 36-year-old female with alcohol related cirrhosis decompensated by ascites, but no history of varices admitted for hemorrhagic shock from spontaneous rupture of omental varices requiring emergency surgery. She underwent the first documented successful orthotopic liver transplantation the same admission.

conclusionThis case report and literature review stresses the importance of early consideration and identification of intraabdominal variceal sources in cirrhotic patients with refractory shock.
