Recurrent ileocolic variceal hemorrhage treated with superselective Onyx embolization: A case report.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Ileocolic and appendicular varices are rare causes of lower gastrointestinal bleeding and are frequently missed on endoscopic evaluation. We present the case of a 35-year-old woman with ulcerative colitis, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and cirrhosis who presented with recurrent hematochezia and severe anemia. Contrast enhanced CT with venous-phase imaging revealed clusters of enhancing ileal varices, and angiography demonstrated ileocolic and appendicular varices with a significant portosystemic shunt draining into the inferior vena cava. Superselective embolization using Onyx followed by glue embolization resulted in complete cessation of bleeding. This case highlights the diagnostic value of multiphase contrast-enhanced CT including venous phase imaging and the effectiveness of minimally invasive endovascular treatment for rare ectopic varices.
