Patient-Reported Outcome Scores Are Comparable in Multiregional Versus Uniregional Eosinophilic Esophagitis.

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
Background and Aims: Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) clinical trials often require multiregional esophageal inflammation. To determine if patient-reported outcomes (PROs) worsen with multiregional eosinophil inflammation (≥15 eosinophils/high power field), we compared outcomes scores when multiple (proximal/mid/distal) esophageal regions, versus one, were inflamed. Methods: The Consortium of Eosinophilic Gastrointestinal Disorders Researchers database was searched for peak eosinophil counts (PECs), eosinophilic esophagitis histology scoring system scores, and PRO scores (eosinophilic esophagitis activity index; Pediatric Eosinophilic Esophagitis Symptom Score; EoE quality of life; Pediatric Quality of Life Eosinophilic Esophagitis modulev3.0) in submissions from one or more regions. Analyses were performed with unadjusted or adjusted (adults: age, sex, dilation within 1 year; children: age, sex) data, using Wilcoxon rank sum and T test, and least squares mean, respectively. An interaction test was used for subgroup analysis. Results: Adult PEC was 60.2 ± 44.8 vs 39.5 ± 29.9 (mean ± standard deviation, Conclusion: Multiregional compared to uniregional esophageal eosinophil inflammation does not significantly impact most PRO scores, and may not be necessary for all clinical trials.
