The Cloaked Intruder: An Unexpected Case of Eosinophilic Cholangitis.
Article in ACG case reports journal, 2019. 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
Often, when biliary strictures are evaluated, malignancy is high on the differential. However, it is important to consider benign and malignant causes because approximately 10% of biliary strictures are benign. Eosinophilic cholangitis is an extremely rare benign disorder of the biliary tract caused by fibrosis and stricture from eosinophilic infiltration. The etiology of the disease remains unclear, and often, patients present with obstructive jaundice. We present a young man who presented with obstructive jaundice and abdominal pain, with a biliary stricture and peripheral eosinophilia. The final surgical pathology revealed eosinophilic cholangitis.
