Refractory Celiac Disease Successfully Treated With Azathioprine.
Article in Gastroenterology research, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Refractory celiac disease (CD) is a clinical diagnosis defined by the persistence of signs/symptoms, laboratory abnormalities or villous atrophy typical of CD despite strict adherence to a gluten-free diet for at least 6 - 12 months. It should be suspected when patients with CD fail to respond primarily or secondarily to a gluten-free diet, especially if there is significant weight loss. Differentiation between types is important both for management and predicting prognosis. Type I can be managed with mild immunosuppression with nutritional support. Type II requires strong immunosuppression like azathioprine. Recently, autologous stem cell transplantation has also been used to treat type II.
