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

Objectives: MR enterography (MRE) Index of Activity (MaRIA) and Clermont are validated scores that correlate with Crohn's disease (CD) activity; however, the Clermont score has not been validated to correlate with the degree of change in mucosal inflammation post induction treatment in children. This pilot study evaluated if MaRIA and Clermont scores can serve as surrogates to ileocolonoscopy for assessing interval change in mucosal inflammation in pediatric CD post-induction treatment. Methods: Children with known or newly diagnosed ileocolonic CD starting or changing therapy underwent ileocolonoscopy, scored with simple endoscopic score for Crohn's disease (SES-CD), and MRE on the same day at two time points (Week 0 and 12). Accuracy of global MaRIA and Clermont indices relative to ileocolonoscopy in detecting degree of post-treatment interval change in mucosal inflammation was assessed through correlational coefficients ( Results: Sixteen children (mean age 11.5 ± 2.8) were evaluated. Global MaRIA/Clermont correlated with SES-CD in detecting the degree of change in mucosal inflammation ( Conclusions: MRE-based global scores correlate with endoscopic indices and may be used to monitor disease changes in children with CD undergoing induction treatment, which can advise the physician if treatment changes should be made.
