Polygenic Infantile Juvenile Polyposis Syndrome Managed With Sirolimus and Endoscopic Polypectomy.
Article in Gastroenterology research, 2022. 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
In the following clinical case of infantile juvenile polyposis syndrome (JPS), administration of a pharmacologic agent sirolimus was associated with reduced disease burden without need for bowel resection. The positive impact included improvement in protein-losing enteropathy, decreased intestinal blood loss, and improved weight gain. In addition, the number of polyps resected per unit time and frequency of upper and lower endoscopic evaluation needed dropped after initiation of sirolimus. This case report describes a positive clinical outcome and discusses the use of sirolimus with aggressive polypectomy as a potential treatment for the rare disease entity of polygenic infantile JPS. Through this case, we aim to emphasize that while administration of this drug may mitigate many sequelae of infantile JPS, it does not appear to eliminate the need for aggressive polypectomy.
