A rare case of eosinophilic jejunitis: diagnosis and management strategies.
Article in Journal of surgical case reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 gastroenteritis is a rare disease with an unknown cause, which can manifest independently or as part of a hyper-eosinophilic syndrome. The severity of the condition depends on the extent of eosinophilic infiltration and damage to the digestive tract. Diagnosis relies on histological examination, which reveals a significant presence of eosinophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes in the digestive wall. The authors present a new case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis in a 28-year-old patient who exhibited obstructive symptoms but lacked peripheral eosinophilia. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed no abnormalities, but barium transit imaging revealed gastro-duodeno-jejunal dilation upstream of a tight jejunal stenosis. Surgical examination of the affected area confirmed a diffuse and transparietal eosinophilic infiltrate, with no evidence of parasitic or granulomatous lesions. Fortunately, the patient had a swift recovery following surgery. Biopsies conducted at other locations, including the gastric, hepatic, and medullary levels, produced negative results, indicating the localized nature of the condition.
