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

An unusual case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EGE) is reported. Fewer than 150 cases of EGE have been reported in the world literature to date. This is the first case of this disease reported to have rectal involvement, and only the second case in which colonic involvement has been histologically documented. The addition of this case to those previously reported in the literature would suggest that EGE may involve any segment of the gastrointestinal tract.
