Sclerosing cholangitis epidemiology and etiology.
Review in Journal of gastrointestinal surgery : official journal of the Society for Surgery of the Alimentary Tract, 2008. 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
Sclerosing cholangitis represents a spectrum of chronic biliary diseases that either has an unknown etiology (i.e., primary) or is caused by identifiable insults to the biliary tree (i.e., secondary). To date, the epidemiology of primary sclerosing cholangitis has been appraised; however, its etiology continues to be unclear. In contrast, the etiology of secondary sclerosing cholangitis is always known, but the epidemiology of this clinical entity is difficult to study.
