Squamous Cell Papilloma of the Oesophagus: A Human Papilloma Virus Lesion.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Oesophageal squamous cell papilloma is a very rare entity with a limited number of reports in the literature. The exact aetiology is uncertain, and it commonly overlaps with gastro-oesophageal reflux. Human papilloma virus (HPV) is deemed responsible for some cases. Although incidental discovery during upper gastrointestinal endoscopy for other reasons is the commonest presentation, symptomatic cases do occur. Endoscopic excision is the standard treatment. We report a case of HPV-positive squamous papilloma of the upper oesophagus, presenting with lateralising throat pain and diagnosed with office transnasal oesophagoscopy. We also discuss features of HPV-positive oesophageal squamous papilloma and the role of transnasal oesophagoscopy as a recent diagnostic modality of increasing popularity.
