Achalasia Cardia: A Case Series.
Article in JNMA; journal of the Nepal Medical Association, 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
abstractAchalasia cardia is a rare disorder that impacts the lower esophageal sphincter and esophageal body. Due to its wide range of symptoms, it can be difficult to diagnose. Here we report three cases of Achalasia Cardia during a period of 9 months. The first patient, an 18-year-old male, presented with dysphagia and was evaluated with barium swallow and high-resolution manometry (HRM) revealing Achalasia Cardia. In the second case, a 37-year-old female had a prolonged diagnostic journey due to multiple comorbidities before a barium swallow finally revealed achalasia cardia. The third patient, a 47-year-old female was promptly diagnosed with barium swallow. All the cases were successfully treated with laparoscopic Heller's myotomy with anterior Dor's fundoplication. This case series highlights the potential for delayed diagnosis and the importance of early recognition, tailored diagnostic approaches, and the efficacy of surgical management.
