Ménétrier's disease of the stomach: a clinical challenge.
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 15 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
Ménétrier's disease is a rare hyperproliferative protein-losing gastropathy of the gastric foveolar epithelium. Most common symptoms include epigastric pain with fullness and vomiting, and generalized peripheral edema with hypoalbuminemia. Radiologically, the wall of the gastric body and fundus is diffusely thickened, often with antral sparing. Giant rugal edematous folds are seen on gastroscopy, and histology of biopsy material shows diffuse foveolar hyperplasia with cystic dilatation of the glandular portion of the gastric mucosa in the absence of significant inflammatory infiltrate. The recent discovery of transforming growth factor α overexpression opens the way of epidermal growth factor receptor blockade with cetuximab as first-line treatment modality in severe cases of Ménétrier's disease.
