Opportunistic infections changed before and after SARS-CoV-2 infection in inflammatory bowel disease patients: a retrospective single-center study in China.

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
Objective: SARS-CoV-2 transmission has become a serious worldwide public health concern. However, there is currently insufficient data to determine whether SARS-CoV-2 infection would affect opportunistic infections in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Methods: A retrospective study included 451 IBD patients (294 UC and 157 CD). The IBD patients were divided into two groups: before SARS-CoV-2 infection and after SARS-CoV-2 infection, and outcomes were measured for these groups. The primary outcome was the presence and distribution of opportunistic infections. The secondary outcomes included factors associated with opportunistic infections, based on which a nomogram prediction model was developed and validated. Results: After SARS-CoV-2 infection, the proportion of IBD patients with opportunistic infections by Conclusion: After the SARS-CoV-2 infection, there has been a shift in the occurrence of opportunistic infections among IBD patients. It might be attributed to the use of corticosteroids and also the strengthening of containment measures, heightened public health awareness, and widespread vaccination.
