Risk Factors for Surgery in Pediatric Patients with Crohn's Disease.

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
objectivePediatric Crohn's disease (CD) has a more aggressive phenotype and course than in adults. Many patients develop complications that require surgery. The aim of this study was to identify the factors associated with increased risk for surgical intervention in pediatric patients with CD. SUBJECTS AND
methodsThis study is a retrospective review of medical records. We analyzed the following variables: sex, age at diagnosis, presenting symptoms, duration of symptoms before diagnosis, disease location and severity, the presence of extraintestinal manifestations, and the presence of anti-Saccharomyces cerevisiae antibodies. Univariate analysis using the Mann-Whitney test and Fisher's exact test was performed to detect the factors associated with surgery. Potential risk factors with p < 0.05 were further analyzed using a multivariate binary logistic regression model.
resultsFifty-seven patients (27 girls and 30 boys) were included in the analysis. More than one-fourth of them (28.1%) required surgical management. Female sex (p = 0.043), disease behavior (p = 0.012), and the presence of perianal disease at diagnosis (p < 0.001) were the variables associated with surgical intervention. Stricturing disease (B2) (odds ratio [OR], 24.944; p = 0.016), stricturing and penetrating disease (B2B3) (OR, 28.276; p = 0.011), and the presence of perianal disease at diagnosis (OR, 95.802; p = 0.001) were independent risk factors for surgery. Female sex was associated with surgery without being an independent risk factor.
conclusionFemales with B2 or B2B3 or the presence of perianal disease at diagnosis are at a higher risk for surgery and should be considered for more aggressive medical treatments.
