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

Ectopic varices resulting from portal hypertension can cause fatal bleeding. Intra-abdominal hemorrhage from omental varices is rare, and no previous reports have described a direct connection between the splenic and ovarian veins. We report a case of intra-abdominal hemorrhage caused by an omental varix in a 49-year-old women with liver cirrhosis. Because she was hemodynamically unstable, surgical treatment was not feasible; therefore, an interventional procedure was planned. The varices originated from the splenic vein and drained into the ovarian vein. Through percutaneous portal venous access, the varices were embolized using coils and histoacryl via the splenic vein. Variceal bleeding ceased after the procedure; however, the patient died of multi-organ failure due to hemorrhagic shock and cardiac arrest. Thus, in patients with liver cirrhosis, it is essential to consider potential intra-abdominal hemorrhage from ectopic varices and identify the associated vessels to ensure prompt interventional management.
