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

Pouchitis is an inflammatory complication after restorative proctocolectomy and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). IPAA is the surgical treatment of choice in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) who require colectomy. Initial episodes of acute pouchitis generally respond to antibiotics but significant numbers of cases eventually become dependent on or refractory to antibiotics. Management of chronic antibiotic refractory pouchitis is challenging and can ultimately lead to pouch failure. The etiopathogenesis is unknown though recent studies have implicated bacterial dysbiosis of the pouch microbiota, NOD2 polymorphism, and Clostridium difficile infection in the development of severe pouchitis. Early identification of risk factors can help in tailoring therapy and reducing cases of chronic pouchitis.
