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

BACKGROUND Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease, affecting the colon continuously from the rectum proximally. However, a clinical type with right-sided colitis sparing the anal side of the colon is also known. Mesalamine, which is generally used to treat UC, can rarely aggravate the disease. CASE REPORT A 56-year-old woman with no history of colonic diseases visited our hospital because of a positive fecal occult blood test. The first colonoscopy showed inflamed and edematous mucosa extending from the ascending colon to the right-half of the transverse colon. Colonic biopsy specimens demonstrated infiltrations of chronic inflammatory cells in the mucosa and crypt abscesses, but no epithelioid granulomas, compatible with UC. She was highly positive for PR3-ANCA, confirming the diagnosis of UC. After starting mesalamine, she had hypersensitivity reactions and aggravations of UC, which were confirmed endoscopically. CONCLUSIONS Right-sided colitis may be a subgroup of UC, and this is the first report of this type of disease complicated by aggravation due to mesalamine hypersensitivity.
