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

purpose of reviewBiologics for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have been transformative to the therapeutic goals in the pediatric population. We review the biologics used to treat IBD, highlighting the importance of patient selection, dosing considerations, and therapeutic drug monitoring in children. RECENT

findingsInfliximab is well-established as a safe and efficacious therapy for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Both dose escalation strategies and therapeutic drug monitoring increase the likelihood of response to anti-TNFα therapies. Early real-world experience of vedolizumab and ustekinumab in pediatric IBD shows promising results, including clinical response rates comparable to what is seen in adults, but there are limited data using them as first-line therapies. Biologic therapies have improved outcomes in pediatric IBD, including achieving mucosal healing as well as improved growth and pubertal development. Therapeutic drug monitoring improves likelihood of response to anti-TNFα therapies, but further studies for vedolizumab and ustekinumab are necessary.
