A Rare Etiology of Esophageal Obstruction: Esophageal Clot Formation After Teeth Extraction.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Esophageal obstruction represents an endoscopic emergency owing to the high mortality rate associated with complications, including perforation and airway compromise. While typically caused by food or foreign body ingestion, esophageal clot represents a rare etiology of obstruction. We present a case of esophageal obstruction in the context of an anastomotic stricture and chronic anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation caused by clot formation due to oral hemorrhage after dental extractions. Clot retrieval was accomplished via endoscopic suction, and balloon dilation of the anastomotic stricture was performed to prevent recurrence. Our case illustrates the importance of considering oral hemorrhage, therapeutic anticoagulation, and esophageal strictures as risk factors for esophageal obstruction due to clot formation in order to make a timely diagnosis and treatment of this potential endoscopic emergency.
