Esophagitis Dissecans Superficialis in a 47-Year-Old Female With Dysphagia and Epigastric Pain: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 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
Esophagitis dissecans superficialis (EDS) is an infrequently diagnosed benign esophageal disease that presents with sloughing of the esophageal mucosa into the esophageal lumen. It often presents after esophageal irritation but may also occur idiopathically. Treatment is approached by cessation of the offending agent and initiation of a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). We present the case of a 47-year-old female with persistent epigastric pain and dysphagia despite twice-daily PPI use. The patient had several known risk factors for EDS. Diagnosis was subsequently confirmed by upper endoscopy and histopathological analysis. The patient was advised to continue PPI treatment indefinitely.
