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

Esophageal actinomycosis is a rare, chronic granulomatous disease caused by Actinomyces species. Endoscopy and biopsy are essential for making a diagnosis. This paper reports a case of esophageal actinomycosis that developed after an endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) for a subepithelial tumor (SET). A 74-year-old male patient had a 3 cm flat, smooth elevation in the esophagus without symptoms. The SET was partially resected, and histology revealed "nonspecific degenerated mesenchymal tissue". Three months later, the patient exhibited a persistently large ulceration at the EMR site, and a biopsy revealed actinomycosis. CT of the chest and abdomen revealed no abnormal findings. Ampicillin treatment was administered for six months, and the ulceration on the esophageal SET improved.
