1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Aims and background: Upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB) is defined as blood loss originating proximal to the ligament of Treitz. Incidence of UGIB in India ranges from 50 to 150 per 1,00,000 population annually. Patients from this region of India have not been well studied. Methods: We conducted a prospective study to evaluate the clinical profile, various etiologies, endoscopic findings, and outcomes in UGIB patients admitted to MKCG Medical College from April 2023 to December 2025. Results: A total of 294 patients with UGIB were included, with a median age of 48 years [interquartile range (IQR): 36-60]. Regarding the etiology of UGIB, gastric and duodenal ulcers were the most common causes (59.9%; Conclusion: Gastric and duodenal ulcers were the most common causes of UGIB, followed by portal hypertension. Approximately two-thirds of the patients required blood transfusions, whereas one-tenth died during hospitalization. The AIMS65 score was the most accurate predictor of inhospital mortality, whereas both the GBS and AIMS65 scores were better predictors of need for blood transfusion in nonvariceal UGIB of benign etiology.
