Coil Embolization of an Appendiceal Artery Bleed Leading to Appendicitis and Surgical Resection.
Article in European journal of case reports in internal 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
Background: Appendiceal bleeding is an infrequent cause of lower gastrointestinal bleeding (LGIB), accounting for only 0.014% of cases. Case report: We present the case of a 48-year-old male on heparin who developed an acute LGIB from the appendicular artery requiring coil embolization and subsequently developed appendicitis. Conclusion: This case highlights appendicitis as a potential complication of appendiceal artery embolization. Careful patient selection and consideration of alternative approaches, including upfront surgery or endoscopic therapy, are essential in managing appendiceal artery bleeds. LEARNING POINTS: Expands the internist's differential and management strategy for obscure lower gastrointestinal bleeding.Identifies appendicitis as a real, not theoretical, complication of appendiceal artery embolization.
