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

Fanconi anaemia (FA), a rare genetic disorder of DNA repair, predisposes to squamous cell carcinomas of head, neck and oesophagus. We assessed the value of screening esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) in 20 asymptomatic adults (median age 23.5, 65% female) with FA, compared to age-and sex-matched non-FA patients enrolled at a 3:1 ratio. Among 11 FA patients with abnormal oesophageal mucosa, 15% had low-grade dysplasia, nodular high-grade dysplasia or squamous carcinoma in situ, 10% had non-dysplastic Barrett's oesophagus and 30% had columnar epithelium without goblet cells, compared to none in the controls (p < 0.001). Our findings support routine EGD screening of asymptomatic FA patients.
