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

A 44-year-old woman who had been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (UC) at 22 years old was diagnosed with severe flare-up of UC based on endoscopic findings associated with new-onset active pyoderma gangrenosum (PG) on both lower legs after she decided to discontinue UC treatment. Systemic treatment with intravenous prednisolone at 30 mg/day had achieved insufficient response to UC and PG, resulting in a diagnosis of corticosteroid-refractory UC and PG. Combination therapy with upadacitinib at 45 mg/day plus intensive granulocyte and monocyte adsorptive apheresis (GMA) was started to achieve clinical remission of UC. Ten weeks after starting this combination therapy, clinical improvement of UC was achieved with PG ulcer healing on both lower legs. A combination of upadacitinib plus intensive GMA may offer an effective therapeutic option for patients with active PG in addition to UC but has yet to be approved for induction or maintenance treatment of PG worldwide. PG is a dermatological involvement in UC patients that requires attention.
