Barrett's esophagus: best of Digestive Disease Week 2003.
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2004. 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
The definition of Barrett's esophagus is conceptually simple. It is the replacement of the normal squamous mucosa by specialized intestinal metaplasia within the esophagus. Barrett's esophagus would only be a clinical curiosity if not for its predisposition toward neoplastic change. In spite of all the knowledge and data gathered thus far on Barrett's, much remains unknown. Why do some patients develop Barrett's while others do not? Why do some with Barrett's advance to adenocarcinoma? Once Barrett's develops, what is the optimal prevention strategy for adenocarcinoma? These clinical unknowns touch only the tip of the iceberg and have made Barrett's esophagus a subject of intense research. This review offers some of the highlights from Digestive Disease Week 2003, comprised of posters of distinction and oral presentations.
