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

Most studies on the gut microbiome of Crohn's disease have been conducted using feces, instead of intestinal mucus to analyze the mucosa-associated microbiota. To investigate the characteristics of mucosa-associated microbiota in Crohn's disease patients and the effect of anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α therapy on mucosa-associated microbiota, we analyzed microbiota in Crohn's disease patients using brushing samples taken from terminal ileum. The recruited subjects were 18 Crohn's disease patients and 13 controls. There were 10 patients with anti-TNF-α therapy in Crohn's disease group. Crohn's disease patients had significantly reduced α-diversity in Shannon index compared to the controls. The comparative analysis of the taxonomic composition at the genus level between the Crohn's disease group and the controls indicated that butyrate-producing bacteria were less abundant in the Crohn's disease group compared to the controls. There were no differences in the diversity between the patients taking anti-TNF-α therapy and the patients without. The comparative analysis of the taxonomic composition at the genus level between the two groups indicated that some of anti-inflammatory bacteria were less abundant in the anti-TNF-α therapy group than the other. Reduction of specific bacteria producing anti-inflammatory molecules, especially butyrate-producing bacteria may play important roles in the pathophysiology of Crohn's disease.
