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

We report the case of a 19-year-old White male diagnosed with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), Gardner's syndrome (GS) phenotype, status post total colectomy, who developed progressive dysphagia and weight loss. He was diagnosed with achalasia based on imaging and esophageal manometry. The patient underwent a Heller myotomy with the resolution of symptoms. To date, no previous literature has reported on concurrent FAP or GS and achalasia. Although FAP and achalasia are both rare conditions with no previously known concurrent occurrence, association, or described syndrome, it is important to be vigilant of this new case report finding. One must also consider the increased risk of malignancy in patients with achalasia in addition to the significant risk of malignancy in patients with FAP/GS.
