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), such as ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), are remitting and relapsing disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, highlighted by the dysregulation of pro- and anti-inflammatory mediators, which lead to mucosal damage. These conditions cause a significant burden worldwide as primary and secondary treatment failure rates remain high even with our current therapeutic options. This emphasizes the need for continued advancement in treatment efficacy with improved safety profiles. Novel disease-targeting therapeutics have been developed, most recently being the Janus kinase inhibitors (JAKi). JAKi serve as a promising new class of non-immunogenic small molecule inhibitors that modulate inflammatory pathways by blocking the critical role that Janus kinase (JAK) proteins play in mediating the innate and adaptive immune responses. Tofacitinib has been shown to be therapeutically efficacious, to have a tolerable safety profile, and to be available for adult patients with moderate-to-severe UC. This review was designed to serve as an overview and as practical guidance for medical practitioners. Author recommendations and appraisals of the quality of evidence throughout this article are based solely on personal opinion and are not the outcome of a formal methodology followed by a consensus group.
