Aspirin: the miracle drug?
Article in Clinical and translational gastroenterology, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Aspirin use is associated with reduction of esophageal adenocarcinoma but it is not known if it does so by preventing the development of Barrett's esophagus or by reducing neoplastic progression in patients with Barrett's esophagus. There is sparse literature to support the former assumption especially in women. This study by Jovani et al. based on Nurses' Health Study reports 27% lower risk of Barrett's esophagus among women using aspirin. The protective effect seems to increase with higher frequency and longer duration of aspirin use. This study provides evidence for lower prevalence of Barrett's esophagus in female aspirin users.
