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

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is characterized by immune system dysregulation with frequent extraintestinal manifestations, including airway involvement. A reduction in CO diffusing capacity and functional alterations in small airways have been described. An extended analysis of fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) may distinguish the sites of production, and the presence of small airway inflammation may be a useful, non-invasive marker for patient follow-up. The aim of our study was to compare the PFTs as well as FeNO and CANO values of UC patients with different clinical disease activities and healthy subjects to reveal lung function abnormalities and the presence of subclinical airway inflammation. We enrolled 42 adult outpatients at different clinical activity stages of UC (39 ± 13 years) and a healthy control group of 41 subjects (29 ± 3 years). C-reactive protein (CRP) and FeNO values at different flows (50,100, and 200 mL/s) were collected. All patients performed pulmonary function tests (PFTs) with static volumes and diffusing capacity (DLCO). FeNO and CANO values were significantly increased in UC patients when compared with controls (
