Retrospective Cohort Study of Shear-Wave Elastography and Computed Tomography Enterography in Crohn's Disease.
Article in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Distinguishing between inflammatory and fibrotic lesions drastically influences treatment decision-making regarding Crohn's disease. However, it is challenging to distinguish these two phenotypes before surgery. This study investigates the diagnostic yield of shear-wave elastography and computed tomography enterography to distinguish intestinal phenotypes in Crohn's disease. Thirty-seven patients (mean age, 29.51 ± 11.52; 31 men) were evaluated with average value of shear-wave elastography (Emean) and computed tomography enterography (CTE) scores. The results demonstrated that a positive correlation between the Emean and fibrosis (Spearman's r = 0.653,
