Breaking the Silence: A Case Report of Hemosuccus Pancreaticus as a Rare Cause of Gastrointestinal Bleeding.
Article in GE Portuguese journal of gastroenterology. 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
Hemosuccus pancreaticus is an uncommon but potentially life-threatening cause of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. We report the case of a 47-year-old man with a history of alcohol use disorder and alcohol use disorder and a previous episode of alcohol-induced acute pancreatitis who presented with melena, severe microcytic anemia, and recurrent epigastric pain. Upper endoscopy demonstrated blood emerging from the major papilla alternating with bile, raising suspicion for hemosuccus pancreaticus. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a large pseudoaneurysm of the pancreatoduodenal artery within the pancreatic head, likely secondary to chronic inflammatory changes. The patient underwent successful endovascular coil embolization, resulting in complete cessation of bleeding and an uneventful recovery. This case highlights the role of upper endoscopy in early recognition of hemosuccus pancreaticus and underscores the effectiveness of endovascular therapy in managing pseudoaneurysm-related hemorrhage.
