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
Gastroesophageal reflux disease may produce esophageal syndromes, such as heartburn and regurgitation. It is a common clinical presentation with extraesophageal manifestations, such as asthma, arrhythmia, snoring, and sleep disturbance, which could make identifying it more difficult than the usual esophageal symptoms. The aim of this study is to characterize the extraesophageal manifestations in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease and investigate the effect of laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication. We describe the case of a 38-year-old male patient with a history of sleep disturbance attributable to gastroesophageal reflux disease, which resolved on successful laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication treatment. The long-standing sleep apnea obviously improved after laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication treatment. To our knowledge, this is a rare case of successful laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication treatment of a patient with extraesophageal manifestations induced by gastroesophageal reflux disease. The results indicate an underlying mechanism for extraesophageal manifestations and the success of laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication treatment.
