Update on the role of upadacitinib in the treatment of adults with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis.
Review in Therapeutic advances in gastroenterology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
With further knowledge of the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease, small oral molecules have become available, including the Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors. Upadacitinib (UPA) is a selective JAK1 inhibitor and has become the newest drug in this class, with recent approval for the management of moderate-to-severe ulcerative colitis. The large phase III program (including the U-ACHIEVE and U-ACCOMPLISH parallel induction trials and the U-ACHIEVE Maintenance trial) demonstrated superiority over placebo, for all primary and secondary endpoints including key clinical, endoscopic, and histological outcomes utilizing 45 mg orally (po) once daily (OD) during induction and either 30 mg or 15 mg po OD in maintenance. From a safety perspective, UPA has proven to be a safe and well-tolerated medication across immune-mediated diseases with manageable adverse risks such as an increase in herpes zoster. Proper discussion and patient profiling are essential when positioning UPA, considering efficacy and potential risks associated with this highly effective medication.
