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

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in recent times is causing a significant healthcare burden as both ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease (CD) require lifelong therapy and constant monitoring. The current review highlights the concerns in a country like India with special reference to the changing trends of IBD, risk attribution and the financial issues. Indian immigrants behave like residential Indians, whereas their children show IBD prevalence similar to the West, highlighting the role of environmental triggers. However, the environmental and genetic factors in Indians with IBD are not well understood. Men appear to be more frequently affected than women in India. The disease severity is milder in the patients, both males and females, but the risk for colorectal cancer (CRC) is similar to the West. The incidence of paediatric IBD is on the rise. The major burden of IBD in the Indian subcontinent at present is in children, adolescents and teens. Cost towards the management of complications, non-adherence to treatment, differentiating tuberculosis from CD and finally screening for CRC in patients with IBD are the points to ponder in the Indian scenario.
