Going Outside the Gut: Immune Thrombocytopenia Presenting as a Rare Extraintestinal Manifestation of Ulcerative Colitis.
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
A 26-year-old male with no significant medical history presented with hematochezia and was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis (UC) accompanied by immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) as an extraintestinal manifestation (EIM) of UC. This case report delves into the uncommon overlap between UC, a subtype of inflammatory bowel disease primarily affecting the colon and rectum, and ITP, an autoimmune condition leading to platelet destruction. The patient's atypical presentation and subsequent positive response to a treatment regimen targeting both UC and ITP underscores the necessity for a thorough and multifaceted diagnostic approach in individuals with UC, especially when faced with non-gastrointestinal symptoms like unexplained thrombocytopenia. The findings from this study enhance the understanding of UC's diverse manifestations and highlight its potential intersection with other autoimmune diseases, advocating for integrated care strategies in managing such intricate clinical cases.
