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

backgroundThe pathogenic processes in the preclinical phase of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are mainly unknown.

aimsTo study typical antibodies for IBD in the preclinical phase in a cohort of Northern Sweden.

methodsAntibodies typical for IBD (ASCA, pANCA, lactoferrin-ANCA, antibodies to goblet cells, and pancreas antigen) were analyzed in 123 subjects with preclinical ulcerative colitis (UC), 54 subjects with preclinical Crohn's disease (CD) and in 390 sex- and age-matched controls. In addition, in a subset of subjects, inflammatory markers (CRP, albumin, calprotectin and ferritin) were measured in plasma.

resultsThe mean years between blood samples and IBD diagnosis were for UC 5.1 (SD 3.5) years and CD 5.6 (SD 3.5) years. There was no difference in the proportion of overall positive antibodies between subjects who later developed IBD compared to controls (16.9% vs. 12.3%; p = 0.137). The subjects who later developed CD had a significantly higher proportion of positive ASCA compared to controls (9.3% vs 2.8%; p = 0.034), but for all other antibodies, there were no differences compared to control subjects. Subjects with preclinical IBD and elevated antibodies showed significantly higher plasma calprotectin levels compared to subjects without antibodies (980 μg/L vs 756 μg/L; p = 0.042), but there was no difference in the levels of CRP, albumin and ferritin.

conclusionsWe found no significant increase in antibodies typical for IBD years before diagnosis except for ASCA, which was slightly more common in subjects who later developed CD. Very few subjects had detectable antibodies to goblet cells and pancreas antigen.
