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

backgroundThe development of a supportive diagnostic method has long been required to differentially diagnose ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Several antibodies circulate in the sera of patients with inflammatory bowel disease. We previously identified the high mobility group box 1 and box 2 non-histone chromosomal proteins (HMGB1 and HMGB2) as novel antigens of perinuclear type anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (pANCA) and discovered anti-HMGB1/HMGB2 antibodies in sera from patients with UC. Here, we evaluated the ability of anti-HMGB1/HMGB2 antibodies combined with anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies (ASCA) to differentially diagnose UC and CD.

methodsWe measured titers of anti-HMGB1/HMGB2 antibodies and ASCA in the sera of 213 patients with UC and 93 with CD, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays.

resultsAmong the patients with UC, 26.8% were positive for anti-HMGB1/HMGB2 antibodies, with 85.0% specificity towards CD and a positive predictive value of 80.3%. Corticosteroids significantly suppressed the titer of anti-HMGB1/HMGB2 antibodies. Among the patients with CD, 24.7% were positive for ASCA, with 96.2% specificity towards UC and a positive predictive value of 74.2%. Interestingly, the positivity rate of anti-HMGB/HMGB2 antibodies was higher (35.7%) in patients with the ileitis type of CD than in patients with CD in the colon (6.2%; significant difference, P < 0.01). The specificity of anti-HMGB1/HMGB2 antibodies in UC for CD in the colon was 93.8%.

conclusionsCD in the colon and UC can be differentially diagnosed using anti-HMGB/HMGB2 antibodies combined with ASCA.
