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

introductionPediatric Crohn's disease (CD) easily progresses to an active disease compared with adult CD, making it important to predict and minimize CD relapses. However, prediction of relapse at various time points (TPs) during pediatric CD remains understudied. We aimed to develop a real-time aggregated model to predict pediatric CD relapse in different TPs and time windows (TWs).

methodsThis retrospective study was conducted on children diagnosed with CD between 2015 and 2022 at Severance Hospital. Laboratory test results and demographic data were collected starting at 3 months after diagnosis, and cohorts were formed using data from 6 different TPs at 1-month intervals. Relapse-defined as a pediatric CD activity index ≥ 30 points-was predicted, and TWs were 3-7 months with 1-month intervals. The feature importance of the variables in each setting was determined.

resultsData from 180 patients were used to construct cohorts corresponding to the TPs. We identified the optimal TP and TW to reliably predict pediatric CD relapse with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve score of 0.89 when predicting with a 3-month TW at a 3-month TP. Variables such as C-reactive protein levels and lymphocyte fraction were found to be important factors. DISCUSSION: We developed a time-aggregated model to predict pediatric CD relapse in multiple TPs and TWs. This model identified important variables that predicted relapse in pediatric CD to support real-time clinical decision making.
