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/

objectivesTo evaluate the long-term effects of eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) on the nutritional status and growth of children.

methodsWe performed a retrospective cohort study to assess longitudinal growth patterns (height and BMI z-scores) in pediatric patients (<18 years) newly diagnosed with EoE and followed for at least one year. Nutritional status was classified using BMI-based criteria from the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics/American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition and the World Health Organization.

resultsAmong 50 patients, 20% presented with impaired nutritional status at diagnosis, including 12% with moderate malnutrition (BMI z-score < -2) and 8% with obesity (BMI z-score > +2). After a mean follow-up of 24.5 months, the prevalence of moderate malnutrition decreased to 6%, whereas obesity increased to 12%. Height z-scores remained largely stable over the follow-up period.

conclusionsEoE affects children across the full BMI spectrum. Long-term follow-up highlights the importance of monitoring nutritional status in all pediatric patients with EoE, given the risks of both malnutrition and obesity during disease management.
