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

backgroundCurrently, the treatment goal in ulcerative colitis (UC) is to achieve clinical and endoscopic remission; nevertheless, histologic remission is a potential new treatment goal since it is associated with favorable long-term clinical outcome lower rates of hospitalization, complications, and colectomies.

aimEvaluate clinical and histopathologic characteristics at diagnosis as potential predictors of histologic remission in patients with ulcerative colitis.

methodsThis is a retrospective cohort study from 2007 to 2014, including 260 patients. Clinical and demographic information and Mayo endoscopic and Riley histologic grade were obtained accordingly with the follow-up. Histological evaluation was made for all 260 patients; fifty-six patients with histologic remission at the follow-up underwent separate evaluation of mucosal biopsy at the moment of diagnosis. Univariate and multivariate analyses were applied to data from these 56 patients to identify histologic features at diagnosis associated with histologic remission during follow-up. The odds ratio (OR) was determined as a measure for the strength of association. A

resultsThe frequency of histologic remission according to the Riley index in our study group was 21.5%. Factors associated with histologic remission were treatment with steroids (

conclusionFactors that impair histologic remission in patients with ulcerative colitis were treatment with steroids and reduced mucin production; meanwhile, less than 10 eosinophils per high power showed a predictive value for histologic remission.
