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

Background and Aims: Extraintestinal symptoms are well-documented in systemic, inflammation-predominant conditions. Less is understood about extragastrointestinal symptoms among individuals with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and non-EoE eosinophilic gastrointestinal diseases (EGIDs). We aimed to describe the differences in the frequency of patient-reported joint or leg pain and headache for EoE and non-EoE EGIDs individuals. Methods: Adult subjects and caregivers of children were recruited via the EGID Partners network and completed the Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire and Migraine Disability Assessment Test. T-tests were used to evaluate differences in extraintestinal pain symptomology by EGID type. Results: We analyzed 95 subjects with EoE only and 24 subjects with non-EoE only EGIDs. Both EoE and non-EoE EGID subjects described frequent leg pain (50% and and 78%, respectively). While no significant difference was observed in number of days of leg pain, pain severity was higher for non-EoE EGID subjects ( Conclusion: Patients with EGIDs may experience extraintestinal symptoms of pain. These symptoms may be more prominent in patients with non-EoE only EGIDs. Understanding of the underlying factors contributing to these symptoms is needed to guide mitigating approaches for these symptoms.
