How to Care for Patients with EA-TEF: The Known and the Unknown.
Review in Current gastroenterology reports, 2017. 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
purpose of reviewGuidelines were recently published highlighting why esophageal atresia (EA) patients are prone to complication risks, and the need for long-term follow-up. In this review, we will focus on how to investigate and treat potential complications, as well as the pros and cons of different investigative and treatment modalities, and what areas continue to need further research. RECENT
findingsEA patients are at high risk for gastroesophageal reflux and esophageal strictures, and the sequela that result. Extraintestinal manifestations of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) can appear similar to other pathologic diagnoses commonly found in EA patients, such as congenital stricture, eosinophilic esophagitis, esophageal dysmotility, tracheomalacia, recurrent fistula, aspiration, etc. Therefore, it is important to have a standardized way to monitor for these issues. pH impedance allows for detection of nonacid reflux and the height of reflux, which are important in correlating symptoms with reflux episodes. A multidisciplinary approach is beneficial in evaluating and monitoring EA patients in the long term.
