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

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic relapsing inflammatory condition of the intestines that is clinically heterogenous. The cause(s) of IBD are currently unknown but the mechanisms of injury are immunological. Increasingly there is an emphasis on the study of the complex interactions at the interface of self and non-self--the gastrointestinal epithelial surface--in relationship to the pathogenesis of disease. There is mounting evidence that a lack of tolerance to the normal commensal flora of the intestine may underlie the disease pathogenesis. Several genetic loci that are markers of disease susceptibility have been identified. These loci map to areas of the genome that are concerned with antigen presentation or cytokine secretion and suggest a genetic heterogeneity that underlies the clinical differences. Overall a picture is emerging of defects in epithelial barrier function and, or immunoregulation leading to immune responses that are triggered or exaggerated by the antigenic components of the normal flora.
