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

The primary pre-neoplastic lesion of the lower esophagus in the vicinity of the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) is any Barrett's esophageal lesions (BE), and esophageal neoplasia has increased in the US population with predispositions (Caucasian males, truncal obesity, age, and GERD). The responses to BE are endoscopic and screening cytologic programs with endoscopic ablation of various forms. The former have not been proven to be cost-effective and there are mixed results for eradication. A fresh approach is sorely needed. We prospectively followed 2229 mostly male veterans at high risk for colorectal cancer in a 27-year longitudinal long-term study, collecting data on colorectal neoplasia development and other preneoplastic lesions, including BE and spontaneous regression (SR). Another cross-sectional BE study at a similar time period investigated antigenic changes at the GEJ in both BE glandular and squamous mucosa immunohistochemistry and the role of inflammation. Ten of the prospective cohort (21.7%) experienced SR out of a total of forty-six BE patients. Significant differences between SR and stable BE were younger age (
