1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Eosinophilic cholangitis (EC) is an uncommon, benign, self-limiting disease, which typically causes bile duct stricture with eosinophil infiltration. We report the case of a 70-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain diagnosed with EC after treatment for eosinophilic esophagitis. All previous reported cases of EC had bile duct stricture seen on magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography or cholangiogram during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, but only wall thickness of the common bile duct was noted in our case. Although rare, EC should be considered when wall thickening of the bile duct is observed, even without stricture.
