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: Intestinal fibrosis in Crohn's disease (CD) is considered to be irreversible and induces persistent luminal narrowing and strictures. In the past decades, substantial advances have been made in the understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying intestinal fibrosis in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Summary: Intestinal fibrosis is typically associated with mesenchymal cell hyperplasia, tissue disorganization, and deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM). The transient appearance of mesenchymal cells is a feature of normal wound healing, but the persistence of these cells is associated with ECM deposition and fibrosis, leading to loss of normal architecture and function. When homeostatic control of the repair process becomes dysregulated, perpetual activation of profibrotic responses and sustained accumulation of ECM are induced. In the process of intestinal fibrosis, myofibroblasts are considered to be the key effector cells, being responsible for the synthesis of ECM proteins. Activation and accumulation of myofibroblasts in the stricturing lesions of CD patients are mediated by various factors such as growth factors, cytokines, epithelial-to-mesenchymal or endothelial-to-mesenchymal transitions. Despite the identification of many putative targets and target pathways applicable to antifibrotic therapies, no such treatment has yet been successful. Predictive biomarkers and non-invasive diagnostic tools for intestinal fibrosis are still insufficient in IBD. Key Message: We summarize recent advances in the understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying intestinal fibrosis in IBD.
