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

backgroundThe real-world application of STRIDE-II treatment targets to identify whether disease control is optimal in Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) is not well known.

aimsThis study aimed to estimate proportions of patients with suboptimally controlled CD and UC in real-world Canadian healthcare settings and the impact on quality of life (QoL).

methodsThe noninterventional, multicenter, observational IBD-PODCAST Canada study comprised a single study visit involving routine assessments, patient- and clinician-completed questionnaires, and a retrospective chart review. Primary outcomes were proportions of patients with STRIDE-II-based red flags indicative of suboptimal disease control and mean ± standard deviation Short Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (SIBDQ) scores. Secondary outcomes included proportions of patients and clinicians subjectively reporting suboptimal control.

resultsAmong 163 enrolled patients from 10 sites, 45/87 patients with CD (51.7%; 95% CI: 40.8%, 62.6%) and 33/76 patients with UC (43.3%; 95% CI: 32.1%, 55.3%) had suboptimal disease control based on STRIDE-II criteria. Suboptimal control was subjectively reported at lower proportions (patients: CD, 15.0%; UC, 18.6%; clinicians: CD, 19.5%; UC, 25.0%). Numerically lower SIBDQ scores were observed with suboptimal control (CD, 43.0 ± 10.8; UC, 42.5 ± 12.0) than with optimal control (CD, 58.2 ± 7.2; UC, 57.8 ± 6.6).

conclusionsApproximately 50% (CD) and 40% (UC) of patients from real-world Canadian practices had suboptimal disease control based on STRIDE-II criteria. Suboptimal control was underestimated by patients and clinicians and accompanied by reduced QoL, suggesting further efforts to implement STRIDE-II treat-to-target strategies are needed.
