Eosinophilic Enteritis Causing Recurrent Small Bowel Obstruction: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Eosinophilic enteritis is an inflammatory condition characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the gastrointestinal tract. This case report highlights a unique presentation of eosinophilic enteritis as a cause of recurrent small bowel obstruction. The diagnosis was elusive despite extensive abdominal imaging. A histopathologic examination of a full-thickness bowel segment showing extensive eosinophilic infiltration in the muscularis propria was vital in establishing the diagnosis. This report underscores the diagnostic complexities associated with eosinophilic enteritis and the need to consider this condition as a potential cause of recurrent abdominal pain and small bowel obstruction.
