There is a long way from current clinical practice in Denmark compared to recent published English guideline on management of children with eosinophilic oesophagitis.

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
backgroundA low incidence of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) in children in the North Denmark Region (NDR) were measured in 2007-2017. Few of the children diagnosed before 2017 were treated to remission suggesting a lack of awareness. While there currently are no guidelines for treating EoE in Denmark, a new English guideline was published in 2022 renewing focus on the disease.
objectiveThe aim of this study was to measure the difference of current Danish clinical practice for treatment and follow-up of EoE children in the NDR with the new English guideline from the British Society of Gastroenterology (BSG) and the British Society of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (BSPGHAN).
methodsThis retrospective, register-based DanEoE cohort study included 31 children diagnosed with EoE between 2007 and 2021 in NDR. Medical records were reviewed and information about treatment and follow-up were collected.
resultsIn 32% of the children with EoE in the NDR, first-line treatment corresponded with the new English guideline. One in 6 children were never started on any treatment even though treatment always is recommended. Histologic evaluation within 12 weeks as recommended was performed in 13% of the children.
conclusionsIn Denmark focus on improving EoE treatment and follow-up for children is needed, as there is a significant difference between current clinical practice and the recommendations in the new English guideline.
