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

Golimumab is the third anti-TNF agent approved for the treatment of ulcerative colitis. Despite initial success demonstrated by PURSUIT trials, only few real-life studies have been published evaluating its efficacy and safety in clinical practice. Its subcutaneous route and monthly administration represent an advantage in patient compliance, respectively, vs infliximab (intravenous) and adalimumab (two doses per month). The most important weakness of the molecule which often leads clinicians to choose another anti-TNF is the impossibility to dose escalate or reduce the frequency of administrations in case of secondary failure; ongoing studies are trying to solve this problem by monitoring drug levels and the eventual presence of neutralizing anti-drug antibodies. No advantage has still been demonstrated for combination therapy of golimumab with immunosuppressants and further studies are necessary to evaluate this aspect. Preliminary data also report golimumab efficacy in Crohn's disease with higher doses than in ulcerative colitis with an acceptable safety profile. Additional studies are needed in this field to confirm the initial findings.
