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

Behcet's disease (BD) is a multisystem immune-mediated inflammatory disorder that occasionally involves the gastrointestinal tract. Reports on gastrointestinal involvement of BD are relatively rare, of which gastroduodenal involvement is particularly rare. Endoscopic features of gastroduodenal lesions are unknown, and treatment strategies have not been established. In this report, we present the case of a 72-year-old female with gastrointestinal BD who presented with extensive gastroduodenal ulcers and hematemesis that were resistant to colchicine and corticosteroid treatment, which were subsequently successfully treated with infliximab. We also review the current literature on the gastroduodenal involvement of BD. Although rare, the case highlights the importance of being aware of upper gastrointestinal manifestations of BD, as well as demonstrating the potential of infliximab to treat corticosteroid-resistant cases.
