Current Approach to Risk Factors and Biomarkers of Intestinal Fibrosis in Inflammatory Bowel Disease.
Review in Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), especially Crohn's disease (CD), characterized by a chronic inflammatory process and progressive intestinal tissue damage, leads to the unrestrained proliferation of mesenchymal cells and the development of bowel strictures. Complications induced by fibrosis are related to high rates of morbidity and mortality and lead to a substantial number of hospitalizations and surgical procedures, generating high healthcare costs. The development of easily obtained, reliable fibrogenesis biomarkers is essential to provide an important complementary tool to existing diagnostic and prognostic methods in IBD management, guiding decisions on the intensification of pharmacotherapy, proceeding to surgical methods of treatment and monitoring the efficacy of anti-fibrotic therapy in the future. The most promising potential markers of fibrosis include cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), hepatocyte growth factor activator (HGFA), and fibronectin isoform- extra domain A (ED-A), as well as antibodies against granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF Ab), cathelicidin (LL-37), or circulatory miRNAs: miR-19a-3p and miR-19b-3p. This review summarizes the role of genetic predisposition, and risk factors and serological markers potentially contributing to the pathophysiology of fibrotic strictures in the course of IBD.
