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

Menetrier's disease (MD) is a rare, typically transient, hypertrophic gastropathy with under 1000 adult cases and 50 pediatric cases known worldwide. Pediatric cases most often present with an infectious etiology. We present a case of a teenage male expressing a chronic state of disease without infectious origin. Menetrier's most typically causes protein loss and peripheral edema, however, this patient's only expression of disease is an enduring iron deficiency anemia. Moreover, seven additional paternal family members share the same diagnosis. This unique presentation and familial pattern of a very uncommon disease suggests a previously undescribed heritable form of MD. By recording such cases in the medical literature, we aim to boost providers ability to recognize this disease in all its known prior presentations.
