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

Rituximab (RTX) is effective for treating cancer, but reports of RTX-associated enterocolitis are limited. We herein report the case of a 65-year-old man who developed RTX-induced ileocolitis. He was diagnosed with gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALToma) and treated with RTX. He complained of bloody diarrhea after RTX. Mucosal inflammation on colonoscopy indicated RTX-induced ileocolitis. He was treated with corticosteroids, and his symptoms improved. We reviewed the RTX-associated gastrointestinal adverse events and classified the features into ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, microscopic colitis, and ileocolitis. To our knowledge, this is the first case of a Japanese patient who developed RTX-induced ileocolitis.
