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 patient is a 60-year-old female with a history of multiple times of recurrences of an esophageal diverticulum. She was referred for a diagnosis of persistent dysphagia and vomiting. Balloon dilation did not improve the symptoms; thus, she was referred for surgery. Esophageal fluoroscopy revealed a 5 cm diverticulum. There was no significant change in the size before and after dilation. Gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a diverticulum in the lower esophagus, with a residue accumulation. The esophagus directly below the diverticulum was narrowed. The patient was diagnosed with recurrent lower esophageal diverticulum and underwent surgery. The operative findings showed poor coloration of the gastric fundus surrounding operated before by Nissen's method, so the patient underwent lower esophagogastric resection and interstitial jejunal reconstruction. The postoperative course was uneventful and discharged on the 19th day. She is 6 years postoperatively and gained six kg compared to her preoperative weight. She has remained in excellent health.
