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

Postoperative recurrence of Crohn's disease is a frequent and often severe sequela of the disease. Until a few years ago it was deemed inescapable, as all the conventional medications used to treat the disease have been proven of little benefit in preventing recurrence after surgical treatment. In the past few years, anti-TNF agents given immediately after surgery have shown a remarkable efficacy in the prevention of disease recurrence. Large, randomized, controlled trials are currently underway to confirm these findings. Anti-TNF treatment of endoscopic lesions that occur after surgery seems to be less effective than using TNF antagonists to prevent recurrence. However, although the data are limited, this treatment strategy seems to be still superior to all the other prevention strategies that are not based on anti-TNF agents. Limited data are available on long-term outcomes of patients treated with anti-TNF agents after surgery. They suggest that these medications are safe and effective after many years of treatment. In addition, these agents might prevent recurrence even at doses lower than those used in patients with Crohn's disease who have not had surgery.
