Alterations in the mucosa-associated bacterial composition in Crohn's disease: a pilot study.
Article in International journal of colorectal disease, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
introductionChanges in the intestinal bacterial composition seem to play a major role in the pathogenesis and in the clinical course of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), which consist of Crohn's disease (CD), and ulcerative colitis (UC). Mutations in the NOD2 gene are the most important genetic risk factors for the development of CD. In this study, the association between mucosal biopsies and the mucosa-associated bacterial composition from CD and UC patients regarding their genetic risk factors (mutations in the NOD2 gene), their endoscopic activity, and their medical therapy (TNF-α blocking therapy) was examined. MATERIAL AND
methodsSeventy biopsies from routine colonoscopies from 33 IBD patients (26 CD and 7 UC) were obtained. Disease activity and clinical characteristics were assessed. Seven different bacterial strains (Bacteroides fragilis, Escherichia coli, Prevotella melaninogenica, Clostridium coccoides, Clostridium difficile, Bifidobacterium bifidum, and Faecalibacterium prausnitzii) were quantified using real-time PCR. NOD2 genotyping from patients with CD was performed.
resultsFive of the 24 patients were positive for at least one mutation in the NOD2 gene. The bacterial composition was different in CD compared to UC, in macroscopic healthy compared to macroscopic inflamed biopsies, in NOD2 mutated compared to NOD2 wildtype patients, and in patients receiving TNF-α blocking therapy compared to patients without this treatment.
conclusionThis study further characterizes the mucosa-associated bacteria in IBD patients. Different clinical situations lead to an altered mucosa-associated bacterial composition. The analyzed bacteria could be promising targets for cost-effective surveillance or therapies in IBD patients.
