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

Splenic abscesses are typically infectious in nature but have rarely been reported as an extraintestinal manifestation of inflammatory bowel disease, particularly of Crohn's disease. In the United States, reported cases are even more scarce. We present a case of aseptic splenic abscess with concomitant Sweet syndrome in a middle-aged woman with newly diagnosed Crohn's disease. Extensive workup was required to reach final diagnosis, and she rapidly improved with corticosteroid therapy and has been maintained on risankizumab. We aim to contribute to limited data and heighten clinician awareness of these atypical extraintestinal manifestations.
