Splenic Artery Pseudoaneurysm Causing Delayed Hematemesis After Total Gastrectomy With D2 Lymphadenectomy.
Article in Cureus, 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
Delayed postoperative hemorrhage after total gastrectomy is rare and may occur in the absence of an identifiable intraluminal bleeding source. Vascular complications, including splenic artery pseudoaneurysm, represent an uncommon but potentially life-threatening etiology. We report the case of a 67-year-old woman who underwent open total gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y reconstruction and standard D2 lymphadenectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma. Fourteen days postoperatively, she presented with acute hematemesis and hemodynamic instability. Endoscopic and surgical exploration failed to identify a bleeding source. Computed tomography angiography revealed a splenic artery pseudoaneurysm, which was successfully managed with endovascular stent placement. Splenic artery pseudoaneurysm should be considered in patients presenting with delayed bleeding after gastrectomy when conventional investigations are inconclusive. Computed tomography angiography is essential for diagnosis, and endovascular therapy is a safe and effective first-line treatment.
