A Supporting System for Management of Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease during COVID-19 Outbreak: Iranian Experience-Study Protocol.
Article in Middle East journal of digestive diseases, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
BACKGROUND The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the health care infrastructure dramatically, with abundant resources necessarily being redirected to COVID-19 patients and their care. Also, patients with chronic diseases like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) may be affected in several ways during this pandemic. METHODS We used the Iranian registry of Crohn's and colitis (IRCC) infrastructure. We called and sent messages to follow-up and support the care of all registered patients. Besides, we prepared and distributed educational materials for these patients and physicians to reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection. We risk-stratified them and prepared outpatient clinics and hospitalization guidance for IBD patients. RESULTS Of 13165 Iranian patients with IBD, 51 have been diagnosed as having COVID-19. IBD patients made 1920 hotline calls. Among the patients with suspicious presentations, 14 COVID-19 infections were diagnosed. Additionally, 1782 patients with IBD from five provinces actively phone-called among whom 28 definite cases were diagnosed. CONCLUSION IBD patients' follow-up could help in diagnosing the affected IBD patients with COVID-19. Additionally, the performance of protective actions and preparing the patients and physicians for decisive proceedings are the principles of protection of IBD patients.
