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

A 4-year-old male with Klinefelter syndrome (KS), speech delay, and intermittent history of coughing and choking during meals was referred for evaluation. Prior evaluation with computed tomography showed a dilated esophagus at the gastroesophageal junction. The patient was unable to tolerate a barium swallow. Upper endoscopy was performed, and an intraoperative esophagogram, demonstrated a "birds beak" appearance suggestive of achalasia. There is no documented relationship between achalasia and KS. However, we utilized TriNetX (a large-scale data clearinghouse) to demonstrate a higher prevalence of achalasia in patients with KS as compared to the general population.
