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

Objective: Evaluating clinical practices in the management of non-esophageal eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders (non-EoE EGIDs) among pediatric gastroenterologists in Latin America. Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted using a survey distributed via the REDCap platform. A total of 309 pediatric gastroenterologists and trainees from 17 Latin American countries (excluding Nicaragua and Bolivia) participated in the study. Data collection took place between March and May 2024. Results: Sixty-five percent of respondents reported seeing fewer than five cases per year. Only 17.8% consistently collaborate with allergists. While 92.2% perform biopsies in all segments during endoscopy, just 80.9% send specimens in separate containers. Systematic endoscopic monitoring is carried out by 48.9% of practitioners. Ancillary tests such as fecal calprotectin (10.0%) and peripheral eosinophilia (19.4%) are infrequently used. The most common treatment strategies were proton pump inhibitors (44.4%) and elimination diets (40.1%), with systemic corticosteroids (17.4%), viscous budesonide (16.4%), and biologics (11.1%) being less frequently employed. Conclusions: There is considerable variability in clinical practice regarding non-EoE EGIDs across Latin America. These findings underscore the urgent need for consensus-based diagnostic and therapeutic guidelines and highlight the importance of ongoing medical education to improve patient care in this emerging field of pediatric gastroenterology.
