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

backgroundFistulae and stenoses represent frequent and severe complications in patients with Crohn disease (CD). Our study aimed to identify risk factors for fistula and stenosis formation in CD patients. SUMMARY: We retrieved data of 1,600 CD patients from the nationwide Swiss Inflammatory Bowel Disease Cohort Study (SIBDCS). The risk for fistulae and stenoses in relation to gender, age at diagnosis, smoking status at diagnosis, and ileal involvement at diagnosis were analyzed. In the multivariate analysis, female gender showed a lower risk for developing perianal and any fistula (risk ratio [RR] 0.721, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.582-0.893, KEY MESSAGES: In the nationwide SIBDCS, younger age at diagnosis and male gender were risk factors for developing perianal and nonperianal fistulae. Additionally, ileal involvement was revealed to be a potent risk factor (RR 2.170) for developing a stenosis.
