Hemosuccus Pancreaticus from Large Inferior Pancreaticoduodenal Artery Pseudoaneurysm Complicating Chronic Pancreatitis.
Article in Annals of African 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
abstractHemosuccus pancreaticus is an uncommon cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding characterized by hemorrhage entering the pancreatic duct and draining into the duodenum. Although pseudoaneurysms may arise from several peripancreatic vessels in the setting of chronic pancreatitis, involvement of the inferior pancreaticoduodenal artery (IPDA) is particularly uncommon and carries a high risk of rupture. A man in his late 30s with a known history of chronic calcific pancreatitis presented with melena, severe anemia, and hemodynamic instability. Side-viewing duodenoscopy revealed intermittent bleeding from the ampulla of Vater, raising suspicion for hemosuccus pancreaticus. Computed tomography angiography identified a 6.4 cm IPDA pseudoaneurysm causing multi-organ compression. Successful endovascular coil embolization achieved complete occlusion of the pseudoaneurysm. This case demonstrates successful minimally invasive management and diagnostic challenges of a life-threatening vascular complication of chronic pancreatitis. High clinical suspicion, early targeted imaging, and prompt intervention are essential for preventing catastrophic hemorrhage.
