Analysis of the Accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Enterography for the Detection of Active Inflammation and Disease Activity in Patients With Crohn's Disease: A Single-Center Experience in Najran, Saudi Arabia.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundMagnetic resonance enterography (MRE) is a non-invasive diagnostic imaging modality that has been used for the detection of active inflammation and disease activity in patients with Crohn's disease. However, its diagnostic accuracy in the Najran population has not been well-studied. STUDY
aimThis study aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of MRE in detecting active inflammation and disease activity in patients with Crohn's disease in the Najran population.
methodsThe study included 51 patients with Crohn's disease, and their demographic, clinical, radiological, laboratory, and endoscopic data were analyzed.
resultsThe results showed that MRE findings, such as the radiological score for active inflammation and the presence of extra-intestinal manifestations, were significantly associated with the final diagnosis of active inflammation. Furthermore, the timing of MRE in relation to symptom activity and the indication for performing MRE were significantly associated with the final diagnosis. The study findings demonstrate the potential of MRE as a valuable tool for diagnosing and assessing disease activity in Crohn's disease patients in the Najran population.
