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

A male patient with a 17 year history of intractable ulcerative colitis of the entire type was treated by total proctocolectomy. Colonoscopy before surgery did not identify dysplasia. Histological examination of the resected colorectum revealed that, in addition to chronic inflammatory infiltrates, there were 21 areas of microcarcinoids located in the muscularis propria and in the superficial layer of the submucosa. Carcinoids may be more common than previously thought, and they may be a reactive phenomenon to a variety of factors in ulcerative colitis.
