Novel Pharmaceuticals and Therapeutics for Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha-Resistant Crohn's Disease: A Narrative Review.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a medical condition that causes persistent, relapsing inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. It is an umbrella term encompassing two different conditions: ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD). The standard treatment for patients with moderate to severe CD is tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) inhibitors; however, a subset of CD patients face challenges in regard to this disease's treatment. Certain populations of patients with CD may exhibit resistance or develop tolerance to TNF-α inhibitor therapy over time. The recurrent gastrointestinal inflammation associated with CD can severely impact the quality of life and lead to complications for those suffering from this condition. The symptomatic flare-ups these subpopulations continue to experience underscores why such a need for alternative therapies is desperately needed. These alternative therapies not only offer potential benefits for those with TNF-α resistance, but CD may also serve as a superior therapy option for those trying to avoid the adverse effects of CD treatments available today. This review aims to explore and investigate the novel drugs and therapies that are being investigated for the treatment of TNF-α resistant CD, such as upadacitinib, risankizumab, vedolizumab, synbiotics, fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT), and stem cell therapy. Upadacitinib is a Janus kinase inhibitor, Risankizumab is a monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-23, and Vedolizumab is an integrin receptor antagonist. The latest advancements in CD management have shown encouraging results. Some of these novel drugs and therapies not only offer a potential solution for CD patients exhibiting resistance to TNF-α inhibitors but may also provide a superior alternative for individuals prone to opportunistic infections.
