The pathobiology of eosinophilic gastroenteritis of childhood: is it really the eosinophil, allergic mediated, or something else?
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Over the past decade clinicians have witnessed a dramatic rise in the prevalence of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases. Diverse symptoms, a broad range of endoscopic findings, and varying histopathologic features pose several questions: Do eosinophils represent an allergic response? What mechanisms drive eosinophils to specific mucosal targets? How do eosinophils affect the gastrointestinal tissues? Recent clinical and basic studies are investigating the pathogenesis of eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases. This review highlights the literature concerning the mechanisms that govern these diseases, with a specific focus on diseases of gastrointestinal columnar epithelia (eosinophilic gastroenteritis and eosinophilic colitis). The roles of specific chemokines, such as eotaxin, and the data supporting the involvement of eosinophil granule proteins in disease states, are discussed.
