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

BACKGROUND &

aimsIntestinal fibrosis is a significant complication of Crohn's disease (CD). Gut microbiota reactive Th17 cells are crucial in the pathogenesis of CD; however, how Th17 cells induce intestinal fibrosis is still not completely understood.

methodsIn this study, T-cell transfer model with wild-type (WT) and Areg

resultsAlthough Th1 and Th17 cells induced intestinal inflammation at similar levels when transferred into Tcrβxδ

conclusionsThese findings reveal that Th17-derived AREG promotes intestinal fibrotic responses in experimental colitis and human patients with CD. Thereby, AREG might serve as a potential therapeutic target for fibrosis in CD.
