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

introductionTo better inform the risk of cuffitis in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC), we aimed to identify its occurrence and associated precolectomy factors in a large multicenter cohort of patients who underwent restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) with stapled ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA).

methodsThis study was a retrospective cohort analysis of individuals diagnosed with UC or indeterminate colitis who underwent RPC with IPAA for refractory disease or dysplasia at Mount Sinai Hospital or the University of Chicago followed by at least 1 pouchoscopy with report of the pouch-anal anastomosis. The primary outcome was cuffitis defined as ulceration of the cuff as reported in each pouchoscopy report.

resultsThe pouch-anal anastomosis was mentioned in the pouchoscopy reports of 674 patients, of whom 525 (77.9%) had a stapled anastomosis. Among these, cuffitis occurred in 313 (59.6%) patients a median of 1.51 (interquartile range 0.59-4.17) years after final surgical stage. On multivariable analysis, older age (hazard ratio [HR], 1.01; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.01-1.02), extensive disease (HR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.01-1.78), exposure to biologics before colectomy (HR, 2.51; 95% CI, 1.93-3.27), and exposure to at least 2 or more biologics before colectomy (HR, 2.18; 95% CI, 1.40-3.39) were significantly associated with subsequent cuffitis.

conclusionsIn this multicenter study of patients who underwent RPC with stapled IPAA and at least 1 follow-up pouchoscopy, cuffitis occurred in approximately 60% and was significantly associated with extensive disease and exposure to multiple biologics precolectomy.
