Massive Psoas Muscle Bleeding from the Contralateral Lumbar Artery Obscured by a Lumbar Vertebra Fracture: A Case Report.
Article in Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, 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
Lumbar artery injury is a rare but potentially life-threatening consequence of blunt trauma. We report the case of an 84-year-old man who presented with right-sided chest and back pain and hypotension following a 3-m fall from a bicycle. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed burst fractures of the L2 and L4 vertebrae, massive contrast extravasation in the left psoas muscle, and a smaller blush in the right psoas muscle, suggesting left lumbar artery injury. Angiography revealed active bleeding from the right L3 lumbar artery, with contrast extravasation extending through the fractured vertebral body into the contralateral psoas muscle. Endovascular embolization achieved complete hemostasis and the patient was subsequently stabilized. This case illustrates a rare diagnostic pitfall, in which vertebral fractures may obscure contralateral lumbar arterial bleeding, emphasizing the importance of careful CT evaluation and angiographic confirmation in patients with trauma.
