Role of computed tomography in the assessment of caustic ingestion severity: A comprehensive review.
Review in World journal of radiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Caustic ingestion is a relatively rare but potentially catastrophic gastroenterological emergency. Upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy is currently regarded as the gold standard modality not only to assess the depth and the extension of GI caustic injury, but also to guide the appropriate treatment. Intriguingly, contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) has recently emerged as a promising non-invasive and more accurate alternative to endoscopy in this setting. However, to date, evidence concerning the role of CECT as an alternative or complementary diagnostic tool to endoscopy in caustic ingestion is still limited. The aim of our review was to summarize and discuss the current evidence concerning the role of CECT in the emergency diagnosis of caustic ingestion and its value in assessing injury severity among non-pediatric patients.
