Isolated Gastric Crohn's Disease: A Growing Tendency.

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
Isolated gastric Crohn's disease (IGCD) is a rare manifestation of Crohn's disease confined to the stomach, unlike its more common forms that primarily affect the ileum and colon. We report the case of a 25-year-old female presenting with a one-month history of epigastric discomfort and nausea, with no other significant gastrointestinal or systemic symptoms. Upper endoscopy revealed an aphthous ulceration on the greater curvature of the stomach, with biopsies showing non-caseating granulomas consistent with Crohn's disease. The diagnosis of IGCD was confirmed through a positive ASCA test and negative p-ANCA test, alongside the absence of ileal and colonic involvement. The patient was treated with prednisone for acute symptom management, followed by infliximab for long-term maintenance. Follow-up evaluations showed no significant relapse episodes. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges and management strategies for IGCD, emphasising the need for further research to optimise treatment protocols and improve long-term outcomes. LEARNING POINTS: This case highlights the challenges and complexities of diagnosing and managing isolated gastric Crohn's disease (IGCD), a rare manifestation of Crohn's disease confined to the stomach.Serological tests such as the anti-
