Successful management of aortoesophageal fistula caused by esophageal cancer using thoracic endovascular aortic repair.
Article in Clinical journal of gastroenterology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Aortoesophageal fistula (AEF) is a highly life-threatening condition, even when treated promptly. However, little is known about the treatment for AEF in patients with advanced esophageal cancer. We report the case of a 69-year-old man diagnosed with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) that was admitted to our hospital for ESCC treatment. On diagnosis of unresectable ESCC invading the thoracic aorta, chemotherapy was administered. The response to treatment after two courses was evaluated as stable disease. We performed radiation therapy followed by bypass operation for esophageal stenosis. After radiation therapy, AEF was detected. His condition improved after hemostasis using thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). He was discharged from our care after treatment with antibiotics; he died due to cancer progression 7 months after TEVAR. AEF with ESCC is a lethal condition that may occur during cancer treatment; however, TEVAR might help improve the patient's condition.
