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

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is an inflammatory disorder, and almost one-third of UC patients ultimately undergo surgical interventions because of complications or refractory disease. Current restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) is the standard intervention for severe chronic UC with refractory disease. Several complications associated with this procedure can occur, including anastomotic leak, sepsis, and pouch ischemia. The most frequent long-term complication is pouchitis, an idiopathic inflammatory condition involving the ileal pouch. Presentations may vary but include stool frequency, urgency, incontinence, fatigue, malaise, and fever, less commonly bloody stools. We report a case of ileal pouchitis in a young patient, two years after proctocolectomy with IPAA responsive to antibiotic treatment. Our case supports that imaging studies like flexible sigmoidoscopy are necessary to rule out other disorders in patients with pouchitis.
