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

Nutrient depletion is a common complication of inflammatory bowel disease, and some of the consequences can be severe. Although it is often easy to recognise the most severely undernourished subjects, those with lesser degrees of malnutrition may prove more difficult to detect. Measurements of many nutritional variables will be abnormal in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, especially in those with Crohn's disease, but are not always relevant to the clinical management of patients. Anthropometric means of assessment, in particular, measurement of mid arm circumference, can act as a simple, reproducible method of detecting those most at risk of appreciable undernutrition.
