What Happens to Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease Who Are Intolerant to Thiopurines?
Article in Inflammatory intestinal diseases. 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
Introduction: The clinical consequences for patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who stop treatment owing to side effects have not been fully investigated. Methods: This retrospective observational study aimed to compare patients who discontinued thiopurine treatment due to side effects with those who tolerated thiopurine treatment in the use of other IBD drugs, surgery, and fecal calprotectin values in the first 5 years after the start of thiopurine treatment. Results: The proportion of patients with IBD who initiated thiopurine treatment at our clinic was 44% (32% ulcerative colitis and 64% Crohn's disease) and 31% ( Conclusions: Patients who discontinued thiopurines owing to side effects were prescribed more budesonide and non-TNF inhibitor second-line therapy, but there were no differences in the use of TNF inhibitors, prednisolone, or surgery.
