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

Autoimmune optic papillitis is a rare disorder that causes progressive visual loss, often treated with rituximab (RTX). However, its use is not without risks. Here, we present a 51-year-old man who experienced vision loss because of autoimmune optic papillitis, which was well-controlled with RTX. Four years later, the patient developed abdominal pain and diarrhea and was found to have RTX-induced Crohn's disease (CD). The patient failed treatment with azathioprine, but was subsequently able to achieve clinical and endoscopic remission of his CD with ustekinumab, while continuing RTX therapy for autoimmune optic papillitis. This case report describes the efficacy of the anti-interleukin 12/23 monoclonal antibody in inducing remission of RTX-induced CD.
