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
BACKGROUND/
aimsThis retrospective single-center study aimed to assess the safety of early feeding in patients who met certain criteria following peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). MATERIALS AND
methodsData from 100 patients who underwent POEM at our center between January and December 2022 were collected. Early feeding was defined as the introduction of clear liquid foods at 4 hours post procedure. At 4 and 24 hours, the pain was rated using the visual analog scale (VAS) in all patients. Patients without intraoperative complications (pneumoperitoneum requiring needle drainage, severe arterial bleeding requiring the use of hemostatic forceps, severe mucosal injury) and severe pain (VAS score > 6) and nausea-vomiting at the fourth postoperative hour were given the early feeding approach. In patients who did not meet these requirements, enteral feeding was initiated after 24 hours (late feeding).
resultsAmong the 100 patients, 50 patients were categorized early feeding. No patients had a control esophagogram. In the early and late enteral feeding groups, VAS scores were 4 (0-6) and 6 (1-8) (P< 001) at 4 hours and 1 (0-3) and 1 (0-6) (P = .043) at 24 hours, respectively. No severe complications were developed after early feeding. The median hospital stay in the early feeding group was 1 (1-3) day. There was no emergency readmission in any of early feeding patients.
conclusionOur study showed early feeding following POEM can be begun in achalasia patients who do not have intraoperative complications, severe pain, or nausea/vomiting.
