1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

A 76-year-old woman was referred for 6 months of progressively worsening dysphagia and unintentional weight loss. An esophagogastroduodenoscopy demonstrated an area of extrinsic compression in the lower esophagus measuring 7 cm in greatest dimension. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a solid homogeneous mass in the lower middle/posterior mediastinum, laterally displacing the esophagus. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle biopsy showed a hypocellular infiltrate of pleomorphic cells in a loose collagenous matrix. By immunohistochemistry, neoplastic cells were negative for epithelial, vascular, neural, and melanocytic markers. Fluorescent in situ hybridization detected
