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

backgroundInflammatory bowel diseases are associated with various immune- and non-immune-mediated conditions. We aimed to assess the association of inflammatory bowel diseases with comorbidities at late adolescence.

methodsJewish Israeli adolescents who underwent a general health evaluation prior to enlistment to the Israeli Defense Forces from 2002 to 2016 were included.

resultsOverall, 891 subjects (595 Crohn's disease, 296 ulcerative colitis, median age 17.1 years) and 1,141,841 controls were analyzed. Crohn's disease was associated with arthritis (odds ratio (OR) 4.7, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.4-9.1), thyroid disease (OR 2.6, 95% CI 1.2-5.5), atopic dermatitis (OR 2, 95% CI 1.1-3.6), autoimmune hepatitis (OR 4.4, 95% CI 2.3-8.6), nephrolithiasis (OR 3.6, 95% CI 1.2-11.4), and pancreatitis (OR 41.8, 95% CI 17.2-101.9). Ulcerative colitis was associated with arthritis (OR 3.6, 95% CI 1.0-9.8), thyroid disease (OR 4.8, 95% CI 1.2-19.4), autoimmune hepatitis (OR 8, 95% CI 4-16.2), and pancreatitis (OR 51, 95% CI 16.1-158.9). Primary sclerosing cholangitis was associated with both diseases. Asthma, celiac, type 1 diabetes, psoriasis, and bone fractures were not more common in both diseases. Male predominance was noted for most associations.

conclusionsAt adolescence, both Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis are associated with multiple comorbidities, not limited to autoimmune disorders.
