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

backgroundUlcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic tissue destructive inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) of autoimmune origin characterized by predominant bowel symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea and relapsing and remitting rectal bleeding, leading to loss of weight. Extraintestinal manifestations, including involvement of the oral cavity, may also occur. Oral involvement during IBD includes aphthous ulcers, pyostomatitis vegetans (PV) and lichen planus (LP).

objectivesThe purpose of this study was to document the oral manifestations in UC patients and also to evaluate whether oral manifestation can predict relapse and remission of UC. MATERIALS AND

methodsFifteen patients (8 men and 7 women) diagnosed for UC, in clinics of gastroenterology (with disease duration 5-15 years), with equal age- and sex-matched healthy controls were included in the study. All study participants were subjected to intraoral examination to evaluate for oral manifestation. The same patients were also asked a series of questions in the form of questionnaire to evaluate possible association between occurrence of oral manifestations and relapse of UC episode.

resultsPV, minor aphthous ulcer, LP, halitosis, dysgeusia, dry mouth, tongue coating, gingivitis and periodontitis were documented as oral manifestations in UC. PV, minor aphthous ulcer and LP exhibited relapse and remission with the severity of UC.

conclusionOur study revealed numerous and varied intraoral manifestations among the patients with UC. The previous episodes of oral manifestations were also similar and reported exacerbation of oral manifestations during relapses. Thus, oral manifestations can be used as an indicator of relapse in UC.
