Gurvits Syndrome: Black Esophagus in the Postoperative Setting.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The "black esophagus" or "acute esophageal necrosis" is a very rare condition of the esophagus that is believed to have a multifactorial etiology and usually involves the distal esophagus. We present a case of a 66-year-old gentleman who presented with a history of retching followed by one episode of hematemesis two days after his left inguinal hernioplasty. His esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed diffuse ulceration and erosions throughout the esophagus, necrosis of the distal esophageal mucosa till the gastroesophageal junction, and a healed ulcer in the first part of the duodenum. He was managed with supportive care and discharged home in a stable condition.
