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

Eosinophilic gastroenteritis (EG) is a rare inflammatory disease of unknown etiology, characterized by focal or diffuse eosinophilic infiltration of the gastrointestinal tract. Although little over 250 cases of EG have been reported in the literature, EG is probably more common than reports in the literature would indicate. A retrospective review of 25 patients with EG along with a review of the literature was done to identify clinical, laboratory, radiographic, and therapeutic features. An allergic disorder was present in 14 (56%) and a peripheral eosinophilia was present in 24 (96%) of our patients. The most common radiographic manifestations of the stomach and small bowel included stenosis and fold thickening, respectively. Thirteen patients had esophageal involvement, with the esophageal stricture being the most common abnormality found in these patients. Steroids produced a good therapeutic result in most patients; the remaining patients responded to cromolyn and/or surgery.
