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

Cardiac extraintestinal manifestations (EIMs) of Crohn's disease (CD) are uncommon. They include pericarditis, myocarditis, and arrhythmias; however, distinguishing these from alternative causes including medication-related adverse effects is often challenging. Leukocytoclastic vasculitis is another uncommon EIM of CD that may present with systemic involvement. We present a rare case of myocarditis associated with leukocytoclastic vasculitis occurring as EIMs of CD. The myocarditis proved refractory to standard therapy and biologics targeting underlying gut inflammation. She developed an inflammatory cardiomyopathy and symptoms consistent with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Anakinra was tried, but despite the initial response, it should be used cautiously in patients with CD.
