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
introductionEmergency endoscopy has proven remarkably effective in the treatment of gastrotestinal bleeding. However, its efficacy has not been extensively evaluated specifically in patients with cirrhosis‑associated esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB). The patients may experience stress and anxiety before being subjected to the procedure.
aimThis study aimed to investigate the effect of ventilator‑assisted emergency endoscopy in the treatment of cirrhosis‑associated EGVB. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 63 patients with cirrhosis‑associated EGVB were enrolled in the study and divided into 2 groups using the random number table method. The control group (n = 31) received conventional emergency endoscopic hemostasis, while the observational group (n = 32) underwent ventilator‑assisted emergency endoscopic hemostasis. The hemostatic success rate, post‑treatment rebleeding rate, postoperative complication rate, length of stay in the intensive care unit (ICU), cost of hospitalization, and the patients' feeling of comfort (eg, fever and anxiety) were assessed in both groups.
resultsThere were no significant differences in the hemostatic success rate, rebleeding rate, mortality, length of stay in the ICU, or cost of hospitalization between the groups. The symptoms and feelings of anxiety and pain in the observational group were significantly less intense than in the control group. However, there was no significant difference in the frequency of postoperative fever between the groups.
conclusionsIn the emergency endoscopic treatment of patients with cirrhosis‑associated EGVB, using a ventilator ensures a smooth airway, keeps patients sedated throughout the procedure, and enhances their overall comfort. Ventilator‑assisted emergency endoscopy helps alleviate postoperative pain and reduces anxiety.
