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

Although the etiology of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is unknown, there is increasing evidence for the pivotal role played by tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha). Recent work has shown an increased concentration of TNF-alpha in both the bowel wall and in the stools of patients with IBD, and in children with that disease there are increased serum levels. Coincidental studies have shown that IL-10 knockout mice have increased levels of TNF-alpha and are known to develop a syndrome of stunted growth, anemia, bloody diarrhea, and colon tumors that mimics IBD. By injecting monoclonal antibodies intraperitoneally into IL-10 knockout mice, we were able to demonstrate significant histologic improvement of inflammation that correlates well with a resolution of diarrhea and rectal bleeding. This finding is consistent with a role for anti-TNF-alpha in the pathogenesis of IBD and suggests that this model may be of use for examining the effects of anti-TNF-alpha antibody administration.
