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

Gastrinomas are the most common neuroendocrine tumors worldwide and cause a clinical syndrome known as Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome (ZES). Increased acid production resulting from elevated gastrin levels contributes to symptoms such as abdominal pain, heartburn, and diarrhea. However, the non-specificity and overlap in the symptoms with idiopathic peptic ulcer disease and gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) can lead to delayed diagnosis. In this case, we describe a patient with a past medical history of GERD and a perforated gastric ulcer who continued to experience symptoms of dyspepsia and had a subsequent esophageal perforation, despite
