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
Background/Aims: Crohn's disease (CD) is a major subtype of chronic relapsing inflammatory gastrointestinal disorders. In this study, we assessed the possible contributions of serum oxidative/nitrosative stress and dynamic thiol/disulfide homeostasis to CD pathogenesis. Materials and Methods: Patients with active CD (A-CD) at onset (n = 38), CD patients in the remission (R-CD) (n = 38), and healthy controls (n = 38) were prospectively included in this study. Serum oxidative/nitrosative parameters as well as total thiol and native thiol levels were analyzed. Results: We observed significant augmentation in nitric oxide (NO) levels in both A-CD and R-CD patients compared to healthy controls. We detected marked reductions in the 3-nitrotyrosine levels in the patient groups. Glutathione, glutathione peroxidase, and myeloperoxidase levels were observed to be significantly lower in both the active and remission groups (P < .001). In the A-CD group, native thiol (P < .001) and total thiol (P < .01) levels were lower, and disulfide levels were higher than those of the control group (P < .01), while the native thiol/total thiol ratio was reduced and disulfide/total thiol (P < .001) and disulfide/native thiol (P < .001) ratios were elevated. Remarkably, no change in dynamic thiol/disulfide homeostasis was found in the R-CD group. Conclusion: Our results showed increased serum NO levels and decreased antioxidant enzymes, particularly during the active phase of CD. Determination of thiol/disulfide homeostasis could help differentiate between the active and remission phases of the disease. Thiol/ disulfide parameters can be used as biomarkers for A-CD.
