A case of unusual presentation of acute esophageal necrosis with pneumonia.
Article in International journal of health sciences. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Acute esophageal necrosis (AEN) is a rare and often fatal pathology of unclear etiology affecting the distal two-thirds of the esophagus. Typically, elderly patients with multiple comorbidities present with signs of upper gastrointestinal (GI) hemorrhage. On endoscopy, the mucosa is black due to ischemic necrosis, resulting in the commonly used term "black esophagus." We present a rare case of a 61-year-old male presenting with shortness of breath and hematemesis diagnosed as AEN through endoscopy. This case illustrates the importance of considering AEN as part of differential diagnoses in a rising elderly population with multiple comorbidities that present with upper GI hemorrhage. Treatment should be aimed at maintaining hemodynamic stability with high-dose proton pump inhibitors.
