Gastrojejunal Enteral Tube Serving as a Small Bowel Bezoar Nidus.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Gastrojejunal (GJ) tube placement is indicated in the management of gastric feeding-related intolerance. Though uncommon, GJ complications may occur. We present the case of a five-year-old male with congenital heart disease in which image-guided replacement of a GJ tube was unable to be completed due to a mass adhered to the tip of the tube. The subsequent endoscopic evaluation identified the mass as a hair-based bezoar and the tube was successfully removed. The child was subsequently diagnosed with trichotillomania, trichophagia, and pica. This case illustrates the importance of recognizing bezoar formation as a potential complication of GJ enteric tubes, particularly in children with trichophagia and pica.
