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

Mesalazine is a commonly used first-line therapy to treat acute mild to moderate ulcerative colitis (UC). Myocarditis is a rare complication of inflammatory bowel disease. This is a case report of a 19-year-old female with myocarditis induced after commencing mesalazine for UC. She was admitted with pleuritic-type chest pain associated with severe dyspnoea and was hemodynamically unstable during admission. She had elevated troponin and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide. Transthoracic echocardiogram (TTE) results suggested there was evidence of myocarditis with reduced ejection fraction, which was later confirmed by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. There was a rapid improvement of cardiac status after stopping mesalazine within two weeks.
