Differentiating Delayed Esophageal Clearance From Reflux in Scleroderma.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Abnormal acid exposure to the esophagus and esophageal dysmotility leading to symptoms of refractory reflux and dysphagia are common findings amongst patients with advanced systemic scleroderma (SSc). Although treatments and diagnostic methods for esophageal disease in the setting of SSc are currently limited to those used for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), certain advancements in diagnostic testing allow potential for improved detection of the exact etiology and clinical management. Through the lens of a case presentation, we found that while GERD is usually diagnosed with high acid exposure from decreased lower esophageal sphincter tone, the high esophageal acidity seen in scleroderma can be attributed to esophageal hypo-motility, leading to fermentation of food residue.
