An unexpected deterrent in diagnosing refractory celiac disease and enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma: a gluten-free diet.
Article in Journal of community hospital internal medicine perspectives, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Enteropathy-associated T-cell lymphoma (EATL) is a rare disease found in the small bowel and is seen most commonly in patients with refractory celiac disease (RCD). We present a case of an elderly male with celiac disease (CD) diagnosed in childhood with months of abdominal pain and diarrhea despite attempting to avoid gluten in his diet. After persistent symptoms for months, the patient was admitted for an acute abdomen and was found to have small bowel perforation due to a jejunal mass that was diagnosed as an EATL. In 2-5% of adult onset CD, serious complications such as RCD or malignancy develop. The clinical course for EATL is aggressive and generally has a poor prognosis. This case highlights the importance of early clinical suspicion for a small bowel malignancy in patients with a long-standing history of CD and acute worsening of symptoms. Early workup and diagnosis is vital in improving morbidity and mortality in patients with EATL.
