Successful Management of Eosinophilic Esophagitis Using Traditional Chinese Medicine: A Case Report.
Article in The Yale journal of biology and medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EoE) is a relatively recently described condition, with rapidly increasing prevalence over the past several years. There is unfortunately no cure for EoE, and treatment involves food elimination and off-label use of topical steroids. These treatments can have significant impacts on quality of life for patients. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has been shown to decrease Th2 cytokines which are implicated in the pathophysiology of EoE. We present an 11-year-old male with severe EoE who was treated with TCM and able to achieve complete remission. Further modalities of treatment for EoE should continue to be pursued.
