A Case of Sub-Diaphragmatic Abscess after Injection of Botulinum Toxin to Treat Achalasia.

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
Achalasia is a disorder of the esophagus characterized by decreased lower esophageal sphincter (LES) relaxation and absence of esophageal peristalsis. Botulinum toxin (BT) injection targeting the LES has been used in the treatment of achalasia and other esophageal motility disorders, and it is considered to be safe and effective for short-term symptomatic relief. Serious adverse events of this procedure are rare. We report the case of an 83-year-old woman treated with BT injection for achalasia who subsequently developed a subdiaphragmatic abscess.
