[Rare inflammatory diseases of the esophagus].
Review in Der Internist, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Because of its high incidence gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is at the forefront of medical attention. On the other hand, vigilance for rare inflammatory diseases of the esophagus, such as herpes esophagitis, radiation-induced esophagitis, eosinophilic esophagitis, pseudodiverticulosis and Crohn's disease is low. Moreover, these entities are rarely distinguishable from GERD by clinical features alone. For all atypical and treatment refractory supposedly reflux diseases, the diagnosis should therefore be questioned and re-evaluated by endoscopy. When the macroscopic findings of esophagoscopy are ambiguous biopsies can be performed and histological examination then often leads to a definitive diagnosis. This is particularly important because the required treatment of rare forms of esophagitis often significantly differs from that of GERD.
