Esophageal Management of an Aortoesophageal Fistula.
Article in Cureus, 2025. 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
Aortoesophageal fistula, the formation of a tract between the aorta and esophagus, is rare and associated with a high mortality rate. We present a 49-year-old woman with an extensive type B aortic dissection found to have a tract between the esophagus and aortic false lumen. Multiple attempts at esophageal stenting were unsuccessful, with subsequent cervical esophagectomy required. Despite the lethal nature of this condition, the gold standard of management is unclear as studies are limited by a low incidence rate.
