A Rare Case of Eosinophilic Gastroenteritis Isolated in the Muscularis Propria of the Small Bowel.
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
Eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EG) is an autoimmune disorder that involves infiltration of eosinophils in the bowel wall of the stomach and/or intestine, resulting in various gastrointestinal symptoms. The majority of cases are diagnosed by findings of increased eosinophils on mucosal biopsies. We describe a rare type of eosinophilic gastroenteritis with eosinophilic infiltration involving only the muscularis propria layer. This elusive diagnosis was made after a full-thickness intestinal wall biopsy. This predominantly muscular type eosinophilic gastroenteritis can cause intestinal obstruction or perforation. Similar to the predominantly mucosal type eosinophilic gastroenteritis, this type of eosinophilic gastroenteritis responds to low-dose or topical corticosteroids.
