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

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality in immunocompromised patients. Although immunosuppressive therapy is the mainstay of medical treatment for patients with inflammatory bowel disease, the importance of CMV as a cause of pneumonia in this group is less well recognised. This case report presents a case of shortness of breath, dyspnoea and fever in a 51-year-old man with Crohn's disease on azathioprine and highlights the importance of considering CMV as a cause of pneumonia in this group.
