Optimal use and cost-effectiveness of biologic therapies in inflammatory bowel disease.
Review in Internal and emergency medicine, 2011. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), namely Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are burdened by high medical costs which are mostly dependent on hospital inpatient treatment. New biologic therapies, which target specific cytokines in the inflammatory cascade leading to the intestinal lesions, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, have revolutionized the management of IBD by offering a therapeutic chance to patients in whom conventional therapies failed. However, the relatively high costs of biologic drugs, together with their potential toxicity due to infections and malignancies, have led to debate regarding their indiscriminate use in IBD patients. The purpose of this review is to deal with the optimal use and cost-effectiveness of the two main monoclonal anti-TNF-α agents currently used in the management of IBD patients, i.e. the chimeric human/murine antibody infliximab and the fully human antibody adalimumab.
