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

backgroundIn patients with ulcerative colitis, endoscopic and clinical indices are used to assess the disease activity. In addition, stud- ies have been carried out for easier and cheaper markers in recent years. For this purpose, we evaluated the monocyte/high-density lipoprotein ratio of the disease activity.

methodsAccording to clinical activity and partial Mayo scores, a total of 114 patients, 53 in the active ulcerative colitis group and 61 in the ulcerative colitis remission group were included in the study. Monocyte/high-density lipoprotein ratio, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, platelet/lymphocyte ratio, C-reactive protein, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate measurements of these 2 groups were recorded. Ulcerative colitis remission group and active ulcerative colitis group were compared in terms of activity.

resultsThe monocyte/high-density lipoprotein ratio value in the active ulcerative colitis group was significantly higher than that of the ulcerative colitis remission group (10.68 ± 3.39, 6.68 ± 1.39, P < .001, respectively). The monocyte/high-density lipoprotein ratio value for active ulcerative colitis at a cut-off value of 7.4 had 83% sensitivity and 81% specificity. In the active ulcerative colitis group, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, C-reactive protein, and erythrocyte sedimentation rate values were significantly higher than the ulcerative colitis remission group (P < .001, P < .001, P < .001, respectively).

conclusionMonocyte/high-density lipoprotein ratio is an inexpensive and effective marker that can be used to determine the activity of ulcerative colitis.
