Impact of the Concomitant Use of Immunomodulator and a Lower Week 8 Partial Mayo Score on the Persistence of Adalimumab in Refractory Ulcerative Colitis.
Observational study in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective Real-world data of adalimumab (ADA) in the treatment of ulcerative colitis (UC) are scarce. We aimed to study the ADA response rates and predictors of response in UC treatment. Methods This observational, prospective and multi-center study assessed the clinical outcome of refractory UC patients treated with ADA who previously had an inadequate response to either conventional therapies or other anti-TNF antibodies or tacrolimus. The primary endpoint was the proportion of UC patients achieving a clinical response and remission at 8 and 52 weeks. We also evaluated the parameters which were associated with a clinical response at 8 and 52 weeks. Results A total of 35 patients were enrolled from 11 centers. The clinical responses at 8 and 52 weeks were 60.0% and 51.4%, respectively. The clinical remission rates at 8 and 52 weeks were 45.7% and 48.6%, respectively. Positive predictors for week 52 response were combination of ADA with immunomodulator (IM) (OR: 27.229; 95% CI; 1.897-390.76; p=0.015) and a week 8 lower partial Mayo score (OR: 0.406; 95% CI; 0.204-0.809; p=0.010). A receiver operation characteristic curve analysis revealed the optimal week 8 partial Mayo score to be 2.5, therefore a partial Mayo score of ≤2 was a positive predictor for the continuation of ADA. No malignancy or death occurred during this study. Conclusion ADA was effective for inducing and maintaining both a clinical response and remission in patients with refractory UC. It remains possible that the concomitant use of IM and a week 8 partial Mayo score of ≤2 may predict the long-term response of ADA.
