Infliximab monitoring in Crohn's disease: a neural network approach for evaluating disease activity and immunogenicity.
Article in Therapeutic advances in gastroenterology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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: The treatment for Crohn's disease (CD) has increasingly required the use of biological agents. Safe and affordable tests have led to the active implementation of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) in clinical practice, which, although not yet widely available across all health services, has been proven effective. Objective: To analyze serum infliximab (IFX) and antidrug antibody (ADA) levels in CD patients, compare two tests, as well as construct a prediction of neural network using a combination of clinical, epidemiological, and laboratory variables. Design: Cross-sectional observational study. Method: A cross-sectional observational study was conducted on 75 CD patients in the maintenance phase of IFX treatment. The participants were allocated into two groups: CD in activity (CDA) and in remission (CDR). Disease activity was defined by endoscopic or radiological criteria. Serum IFX levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and rapid lateral flow assay; ADA levels were measured by ELISA. A nonparametric test was used for statistical analysis; Results: Most participants exhibited supratherapeutic IFX levels (>7 mg/mL). Both tests showed no difference in IFX levels between the CDA and CDR groups ( Conclusion: Most participants exhibited supratherapeutic IFX levels, with no significant serum level difference between the groups. There was moderate agreement between tests. Two neural network sets showed disease activity and the presence of ADA, noninvasively determined in patients using IFX by presenting an AUC of >80%.
