Killian-Jamieson diverticulum: A rare cause of dysphagia.
Article in Radiology case reports, 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
Pharyngoesophageal diverticula are a rare anatomical abnormality and are classified in 3 types based on the area of their protrusion: Zenker diverticulum is the most common, followed by Killian-Jamieson diverticulum and the rarest, Laimer diverticulum. We report a case of a 68-year-old man who presented to our clinic with a 3-year history of moderate anemia uncovered after routine blood tests, progressive dysphagia for solids and food bolus impactions resolved spontaneously. Upper endoscopy revealed a wide-mouthed diverticulum, measuring 2-3 cm, with normal mucosa and food residue inside, just below the upper esophageal sphincter, on the left side of the esophageal wall and also hiatal hernia with diffuse mucosal bleeding. Subsequent barium swallow study showed as well a 25 mm left-sided outpouching arising from the anterolateral wall of the proximal cervical esophagus, consistent with a Killian-Jamieson diverticulum. Killian-Jamieson diverticulum is a rare condition with a highly variable clinical presentation, most often reported symptoms being dysphagia, regurgitation and globus sensation.
