1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a rare diagnosis defined by the World Health Organization as a persistent eosinophilia for 6 months and resulting in end-organ dysfunction. While many patients present with nonspecific symptoms, others will present with symptoms of the affected organs, most commonly those involving the heart, skin, or nervous system. Gastrointestinal or liver involvement is estimated to affect up to one-third of patients with HES, although patients with clinically significant disease are limited to case reports. This is the first report of a patient presenting with hepatitis and achalasia related to idiopathic HES.
