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: Digestive diseases are very common worldwide and account for considerable health care use and expenditures. However, there are no global population-based estimates of the disease burden and temporal trend of digestive diseases. Methods: Annual case numbers, age-standardized rates of prevalence, incidence, death, and disability-adjusted life-years (DALYs), and their estimated annual percentage changes (EAPCs) for digestive diseases between 1990 and 2019 were derived from the Global Burden of Disease, Injuries, and Risk Factors Study (GBD) 2019. The association between digestive disease burden and the sociodemographic index (SDI) was investigated. We also calculated DALYs attributable to risk factors that had evidence of causation with digestive diseases. Results: Globally, in 2019, there were 88.99 million DALYs due to digestive diseases (3.51% of global DALYs). Digestive diseases were the 13th leading cause of DALYs globally in 2019. Global digestive disease DALYs were highest in the middle SDI quintile and in South Asia and were higher in males than females in 2019. Cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases constituted the highest proportion of categorized digestive disease DALY burdens globally. From 1990 to 2019, the global age-standardized DALY rate of digestive diseases decreased from 1570.35 in 1990 to 1096.99 in 2019 per 1,00,000 population, with the EAPC being -1.32 (95% confidence interval [CI] -1.36 to -1.27). In 2019, the largest contributor to digestive disease DALYs at the global level, for both sexes, was alcohol use. Conclusion: The results of this systematic analysis suggest that the global burden of digestive diseases is substantial and varies markedly according to age, sex, SDI, and geographical region. These results provide comprehensive and comparable estimates that can potentially inform efforts toward digestive disease control worldwide.
