Hemorrhage Control in a Facial Gunshot Wound: A Case Report.
Article in Open access emergency medicine : OAEM, 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
Gunshot wounds (GSWs) to the head or face are among the most complex injuries secondary to a number of vital structures in a relatively small volume of space. Hemorrhage can be difficult to control with traditional techniques, and ongoing hemorrhage can further complicate securing the airway. We present the use of a hemostatic gel in a facial GSW. A 74-year-old male suffered a self-inflicted GSW to the submandibular region with significant hemorrhage in the setting of a suspected overdose of apixaban (Eliquis) and alprazolam (Xanax). Traditional methods were unable to control the bleeding, and a syringe of Traumagel, a hemostatic gel, was then deployed into the complex wound, which achieved hemostasis.
