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

Short-chain polypeptides are composed of three to nine amino acids, which can be absorbed by the intestinal tract without digestive enzymes and ATP energy. Crohn's disease (CD) is a chronic non-specific disease derived from inflammation and damage of the gastrointestinal tract. In this study, we aim to investigate the effect of short-chain polypeptide-based exclusive enteral nutrition (EEN) formulas on intestinal injury in Chinese children with active CD. From January 2013 to January 2019, a total of 84 consecutive children with a diagnosis of Crohn's disease (CD) in the Department of Pediatric Gastroenterology, Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, were divided into mild and moderate-to-severe active CD groups. Each group was further divided into two subgroups: drug group and short-chain polypeptide plus drug group. Tests were carried out on the levels of intestinal fatty acid binding protein (I-FABP) in the blood, fecal calprotectin (FC), and occludin protein in the intestinal mucosa 1 day before treatment and 8 weeks after treatment. Endoscopic and histopathological observations were detected to compare the changes in intestinal injury in children with active CD. After 8 weeks of treatment, the SES-CD scores and Chiu scores of the ileocecal area and terminal ileum of children with mild active CD and the ileocecal area of children with moderate-to-severe active CD in short-chain polypeptide plus drug group were significantly lower than those in the drug group. The OD value of occludin in the terminal ileum and ileocecal area of children with mild active CD and the ileocecal area of children with moderate-to-severe active CD after short-chain polypeptide-based EEN formulas and drug treatment was significantly higher than those in the drug group (
