Sacroiliac joint involvement in children with inflammatory bowel diseases.
Article in Northern clinics of Istanbul, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objective: Sacroiliitis (SI), an inflammatory arthropathy, may accompany pediatric inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), present with non- specific back pain, hence might be unnoticed. The aims of this study were to assess the frequency of the SI in children with IBD and determine the characteristics of the association of SI with the clinical hallmarks of the IBD. Methods: In this prospective, cross sectional study, twenty-seven children with IBD, 7-18 years of age were evaluated. Patients with low back pain or stiffness, alternating buttock pain, or hip pain were examined for the presence of SI. The radiologic manifestations on X-ray suggesting sacroilitis were confirmed with Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Results: Twenty-seven children (16 girls, female/male=1.45), with mean age of 12.55±3.6 years, of which 52% had ulcerative colitis (UC), 41% had Crohn's disease (CD), and two had indeterminate colitis (IC). The median time from IBD diagnosis was 6.0 (18.0) months for patients with SI and 12.0 (13.5) months for patients without SI. Low back pain or stiffness was observed in 13 patients (48%). SI was present in eight (30%) of the children with IBD. The patients with CD were more prone to SI (45% of CD vs. 21% of UC patients). All patients with SI were negative for HLA-B27 genotyping. The disease activity and gender were not associated with increased risk for SI. MRI was remarkable for bone marrow edema in all of the patient, followed by erosions in six of them (75%), synovial enhancement observed in five (63%), and erosion associated enthesitis of the pelvic region was observed in two (25%) of the patients. Conclusion: SI may remain obscured in children with IBD. Children with CD are more prone to SI than those with UC. Pediatric rheumatology-pediatric gastroenterology collaboration might augment screening in at-risk patients.
