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

objectiveWe aim to review the imaging features of eosinophilic esophagitis on fluoroscopy and present how they can correlate with endoscopic and pathologic findings.

resultsEosinophilic esophagitis is a chronic immune-mediated disease that results in esophageal dysfunction. Upper esophagogastroduodenoscopy is high yield and required for biopsies to demonstrate the hallmark histologic findings of eosinophil-predominant inflammation. While esophagogastroduodenoscopy is currently mandatory for diagnosis, imaging findings can provide valuable information regarding the structural and functional properties of the esophagus. In addition, fluoroscopic studies may be very helpful in the setting of subtle findings and to evaluate fibrotic remodeling changes.

conclusionRadiologic examinations are a valuable tool in the assessment of eosinophilic esophagitis and can highlight changes of fibrostenotic disease, as overall narrowing can be more conspicuous fluoroscopically than endoscopically. As the disease increases in prevalence, it is critical that physicians recognize this condition and facilitate diagnosis and treatment.
