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

objectivePoor inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-specific reproductive knowledge is associated with concerns and medication noncompliance. Having shown an educational portal can improve knowledge, we evaluated its effectiveness for addressing IBD patients' reproductive and medication concerns.

methodsAdult IBD participants (aged 18 to 45 years) were invited to access an e-health portal providing information on heritability, fertility, surgery, pregnancy outcomes, delivery, postpartum, and breastfeeding in the context of IBD and IBD medications. At pre-, post-, and 6+-month postintervention, participants completed a questionnaire on IBD-specific pregnancy concerns, medication concerns from the Beliefs About Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ), and medication adherence via the Medication Adherence Rating Scale (MARS). The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare median differences between scores (95% confidence).

resultsDemographics for 78 (70.3%) participants completing postintervention questionnaires: median age 29.3 (interquartile range: 25.6 to 32.9) years; 54 (69.2%) Crohn's disease; 21 (26.9%) ulcerative colitis; 63 (80.3%) females, 5 (7.9%) pregnant; and 19 (30.2%) previously pregnant. Postintervention, the median number of reproductive concerns decreased from 3 to 1, and remained stable 6+ months later (

conclusionUsing an e-health portal may potentially reduce IBD-specific reproductive and medications concerns. An e-health portal is feasible as one component of managing IBD patient's reproductive and medication concerns during preconception and pregnancy.
