Leukocytapheresis in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases.
Review in Przeglad gastroenterologiczny, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Leukocytapheresis, a blood purification therapy, exerts anti-inflammatory effects by removing activated leukocytes from the peripheral blood through extracorporeal circulation. It is a potential option of treatment for patients with inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), especially those with ulcerative colitis (UC), who do not respond to conventional therapy. Given that it has a favourable safety profile and seems to have steroid sparing effects, its position in the treatment of UC is likely to expand. However, there is inadequate evidence to draw any conclusions about the efficacy of leukocytapheresis in patients with Crohn's disease, and it should only be used in accordance with special arrangements for consent. Considering the current level of knowledge, it is essential to conduct large, well-designed, randomized clinical trials to evaluate the effects of leukocytapheresis in the management of IBD patients.
