Successful closure of ileostomy in a patient with intestinal Behçet's disease after therapy with adalimumab: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
rationaleBehçet's disease (BD) is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disorder involving multiple organ systems. In BD, intestinal ulcers can present as a refractory lesion capable of perforation, which makes the choice of treatment difficult. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 34-year-old male who was diagnosed with intestinal BD and suffered with an ileocecal perforation. He underwent surgery for an ileostomy and was given corticosteroids as treatment. However, the ulcerative lesion remained resistant to the therapy that was provided which delayed the closure operation. DIAGNOSIS: Intestinal BD with severe post-operative complication.
interventionsA course of adalimumab (ADa) therapy was started. Subsequently surgery was performed. And ADa and thalidomide were used as a maintenance therapy. OUTCOMES: In this case, a course of ADa therapy was given which healed the intestinal ulcers and allowed us to successfully perform the closure operation. LESSONS: This case indicates that ADa may be an effective treatment option in future cases, minimizing complications and allowing the closure operation to be performed successfully.
