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

backgroundVedolizumab, a humanized antibody targeting the α

methodsThis prospective study included adult patients eligible for UC treatment with vedolizumab who were recruited from 12 centers in Poland between February and November 2019. Collected data included sex, age, disease duration, presence of extraintestinal manifestations or comorbidities, status of previous biologic treatment, and current concomitant treatment. Disease extent was determined according to the Montreal classification, and disease activity was measured with the Mayo Score.

resultsA total of 100 (55 biologic-naïve and 45 biologic-exposed) patients were enrolled in the study (51% female, median age 35 years). Among biologic-exposed patients (mostly infliximab-treated), 57% had failed to respond to the therapy. The disease duration was significantly shorter in biologic-naïve (median 5 years) than in biologic-exposed (8 years,

conclusionsOur study indicates that patients treated with vedolizumab in Poland receive the drug relatively early after UC diagnosis, but their disease is advanced. More than half of the patients had not been treated with biologic drugs before initiating vedolizumab. LAY SUMMARY:
