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 AND

aimUlcerative colitis (UC) patients have several extraintestinal and systemic manifestations. As studies on the frequency and predictors of pulmonary involvement in patients with UC are inconsistent, we undertook this prospective study.

methodsEighty-seven patients with UC (in remission 49, 56.3%, active disease 38, 43.6%, median age: 40 years, range: 16-66, 55, 62.2% males) and 50 healthy controls (median age: 38 years, range: 14-69, 34, 68% males) underwent pulmonary function tests (PFTs) including forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV

resultsSubjects with UC and control were comparable in age and gender. PFT was abnormal in 24 (27.5%) patients (active disease 15/38, 39.4%, remission 9/49, 18.4%) and 1 (2%) control (

conclusionUC patients with active disease have abnormal pulmonary functions with predominant involvement of small airways. Active UC was more often associated with abnormal PFT than the disease in remission.
