Squamous cell carcinoma after radiofrequency ablation for Barrett's dysplasia.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Barrett's oesophagus (BO) is a usually indolent condition that occasionally requires endoscopic therapy. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is an effective endoscopic treatment for high grade dysplasia (HGD) and intramucosal cancer in BO. It has a good efficacy, durability and safety profile although complications can occur. Here we describe a case of RFA in a patient with high grade dysplasia. Although the response to treatment was initially very good with the development of neosquamous epithelium, the patient very rapidly developed a squamous cell cancer of the oesophagus confirmed on radiology, histology and immunohistochemistry. Sanger sequencing confirmed that the original HGD and the squamous cell cancer (SCC) were derived from separate clonal origins. The report highlights the fact that SCC of the oesophagus has been noted after endoscopic ablation for BO previously and suggest that ablation of BO may encourage the clonal expansion of cells carrying carcinogenic mutations once a dominant clonal population has been eradicated.
