Long-term aspirin use in patients hospitalized with ischemic colitis.
Article in Annals of gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Background: Ischemic colitis is a form of mesenteric ischemia that often presents in patients with vascular disease. Long-term aspirin use has been shown to improve the outcomes in patients with cardiovascular or cerebrovascular disease. However, the relationship between aspirin use and ischemic colitis is unclear. Methods: Patients with a diagnosis of ischemic colitis were identified using the 2020 Nationwide Inpatient Sample. Patients were stratified by long-term aspirin use at the time of hospitalization. Data were collected regarding mortality, bowel perforation, peritonitis, shock, blood transfusion, length of stay in days (LOS), hospital charges, age, sex, race, primary insurance, median income, hospital region, hospital size, and comorbidities. The relationship between aspirin use and outcomes was analyzed using multivariate regression analysis. Results: A total of 67,685 patients were included. Aspirin users had a mean age of 72.8 years compared to 66.8 years for non-aspirin users. Long-term aspirin use was associated with a lower risk of in-hospital mortality (P<0.001), bowel perforation (P<0.001), peritonitis (P=0.01), shock (P<0.001), and blood transfusion (P<0.001). The mean LOS was 6.1 days in the aspirin group compared to 9.4 days in the non-aspirin group. Ischemic colitis patients taking aspirin had a mean hospitalization charge of $87,123 compared to $161,610 for those not using aspirin. Conclusions: Our study examined the impact of aspirin use in ischemic colitis patients. Among patients hospitalized with ischemic colitis, we found that long-term aspirin use was associated with a lower risk of in-hospital mortality and adverse events.
