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

backgroundPouchitis occurs in up to 80% of patients after total proctocolectomy (TPC) with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) and has been associated with microbial and host-related immunological factors. We hypothesized that a more robust immune response at the time of colectomy, manifested by acute severe ulcerative colitis (ASUC), may be associated with subsequent acute pouchitis.

methodsThis was a retrospective cohort analysis of all patients with UC or indeterminate colitis complicated by medically refractory disease or dysplasia who underwent TPC with IPAA at Mount Sinai Hospital between 2008 and 2017 and at least 1 subsequent pouchoscopy. Acute pouchitis was defined according to the Pouchitis Disease Activity Index. Cox regression was used to assess unadjusted relationships between hypothesized risk factors and acute pouchitis.

resultsA total of 416 patients met inclusion criteria. Of the 165 (39.7%) patients who underwent urgent colectomy, 77 (46.7%) were admitted with ASUC. Acute pouchitis occurred in 228 (54.8%) patients a median of 1.3 (interquartile range, 0.6-3.1) years after the final surgical stage. On multivariable analysis, ASUC (hazard ratio [HR], 1.50; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.04-2.17) and a greater number of biologics precolectomy (HR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.06-2.31) were associated with an increased probability of acute pouchitis, while older age at colectomy (HR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.97-0.99) was associated with a decreased probability. Time to pouchitis was significantly less in patients admitted with ASUC compared with those not (P = .002).

conclusionA severe UC disease phenotype at the time of colectomy was associated with an increased probability of acute pouchitis.
