The vasculitis in IBD is associated with the degree of inflammation.

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.
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
The role of vasculitis in the pathogenesis of IBD remains unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the detection rate of vasculitis in patients with IBD, its location in the intestinal wall layers and whether it occurs dependent of the degree of inflammation. Immunohistological staining with the endothelial cell marker CD31 and the pan-T cell marker CD3 was performed in 56 colonic specimens of Crohn's disease, in 43 of ulcerative colitis, and in 5 of colon cancer. Quantification of the degree of inflammation was done using a histological colitis score. There was no sign of vasculitis in the healthy intestinal wall layers. In Crohn's disease, specimens with minor inflammatory activity (score 0-2) disclosed no vasculitis. Vasculitis was observed in 82% of the specimens with an inflammatory degree of 3 and in 100% with an inflammatory degree of 4. Vasculitis was detected in all intestinal wall layers altered by inflammation. A direct association between vasculitis and granulomas was observed in only 5% of the specimens with an inflammatory degree of 4. All ulcerative colitis specimens evidenced an inflammatory degree between 2 and 4. No vasculitis was found in specimens with an inflammatory degree of 2, but in 57% with an inflammatory degree of 3 and in 100% with an inflammatory degree of 4. Vasculitis is only detectable in the mucous membrane changed by inflammation. Thus, the vasculitis in IBD is exclusively observed in the intestinal wall layers altered by inflammation. The extent of vasculitis depends on the degree of inflammation. An association between vasculitis and granuloma in Crohn's disease is seen in 5% of the cases.
