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

Patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) experience unpredictable bouts of active inflammation and ulceration. Relatively little attention has been paid to the role of antiinflammatory mediators in the pathogenesis of UC, although rodent studies suggest an important role of prostaglandin (PG) D(2) in the resolution of tissue injury and inflammation. The present study was performed to determine if colonic PGD(2) synthesis was altered in patients in remission from UC and if expression of the key enzymes and receptors related to PGD(2) was altered. During routine colon-cancer screening, colonic biopsies were obtained from healthy individuals, some of whom had been in remission from UC, without treatment, for >4 y. UC patients with active disease or in medically induced remission were also biopsied. Only patients with active UC exhibited elevated expression of several proinflammatory cytokines (TNFalpha and IFNgamma) and colonic PGE(2) synthesis. In contrast, colonic PGD(2) synthesis was only elevated ( approximately 3-fold) in the healthy individuals with a prior history of UC. This group also exhibited significantly elevated expression of DP1, the key receptor mediating the antiinflammatory actions of PGD(2). Expression of the synthetic enzymes cyclooxygenase-1, cyclooxygenase-2, and hematopoietic PGD synthase was not altered in the healthy individuals with a prior history of UC. These results show a marked up-regulation of synthesis of an antiinflammatory prostanoid and expression of its receptor, specifically in individuals in long-term remission from UC. This is consistent with animal studies showing the importance of PGD(2) in the induction and maintenance of remission from colitis.
