Addition of hyperbaric oxygen therapy versus usual care alone for inflammatory bowel disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Article in Heliyon, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Objective: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic idiopathic inflammatory disease that includes ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) involves breathing pure oxygen in a pressurized environment. Existing literature suggests that HBOT may be an effective therapy for IBD, but a quantitative analysis is lacking. This study aims to estimate the adjunctive role of HBOT in treating IBD and lowering its recurrence rate. Design: Systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods: The Cochrane Library, EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP), and Wanfang databases were systematically searched by two reviewers independently. Meta-analyses were performed using Review Manager (RevMan, version 5.3). A random-effects model was applied due to the heterogeneity between studies. Results: Twenty-nine out of the initially identified 606 articles were covered in this review, with a total of 2151 patients (2071 for UC and 80 for CD). No randomized data of HBOT for CD were included. Among UC patients, usual care plus HBOT were more likely to achieve a clinical response than usual care alone (risk ratio [RR], 1.24; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.17 to 1.31; Conclusions: HBOT might be an effective and safe adjunctive treatment for IBD. Further studies are required to investigate the optimal protocol of HBOT in IBD treatment.
