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

Autoimmune enteropathy (AIE) is a rare disease that has been observed in both children and adults. It typically manifests with symptoms of diarrhea, requiring long-term immunosuppression. Endoscopically, the duodenum typically exhibits villous blunting with partial or complete villous blunting, deep crypt lymphocytosis, increased apoptotic bodies, and minimal intraepithelial lymphocytosis on histologic analysis. The pathophysiology of AIE likely involves a hyperactive immune state in the setting of a T-cell regulatory defect, resulting in destruction of the enterocyte. We report a case of a 49-year-old woman who presented with refractory diarrhea, diagnosed as AIE. After failing multiple conventional therapies, she demonstrated clinical and histologic response to abatacept, a selective modulator of T-cell activation. We aim to increase awareness of this rare inflammatory disorder and new treatment options for this debilitating condition.
