1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Both eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome (APS) are relatively rare diseases in Japan. We herein report a case of EoE with APS in a 67-year-old Japanese man who presented with chest pain and dysphagia. On the basis of endoscopic findings and histological analysis, we diagnosed the patient with EoE along with autoimmune gastritis. Additional serological examinations revealed the presence of Hashimoto's thyroiditis and type 1 diabetes, which led to the final diagnosis of APS. His symptoms did not respond to treatment with a proton-pump inhibitor but improved with topical steroid therapy. This case of coexisting EoE and APS-2 is quite rare and has several implications for the pathogenesis of both conditions.
