Preliminary Report: Asymmetric Crypt Fission in Biopsies from Patients With Ulcerative Colitis.
Article in In vivo (Athens, Greece). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundRecently, we found crypts with asymmetric fission bordering ulcers in colectomy specimens from patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Here, we report crypts with asymmetric fission found in biopsies from patients with UC. PATIENTS AND
methodsSections from endoscopic biopsies from five patients with UC were reviewed. The number of transected (cut-across) crypts in symmetric and asymmetric fission was assessed in sections from three biopsies in each patient.
resultsA total of 89 crypts in fission were recorded in the 15 biopsies; 36 (40.4%) were in symmetric fission and the remaining 53 (59.6%) in asymmetric fission.
conclusionA high frequency of asymmetric crypts in fission was demonstrated in endoscopic biopsies from patients with UC. It is suggested that this previously unaddressed histological parameter is included in pathological descriptions of endoscopic biopsies from patients with UC.
