Tumour necrosis factor inhibitors in Ulcerative colitis: real-world data on Therapeutic drug monitoring and evaluation of current treatment targets (STRIDE II).

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
backgroundThe benefit of therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and implementation of recommendations from the Selection of Therapeutic Targets in Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD, STRIDE) are discussed in the IBD community. We report real-world data in ulcerative colitis patients receiving first-line tumour necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) treatment followed by TDM, and assess how implementation of the STRIDE II recommendations might affect clinical practice.
methodsAdult, biologically naïve UC patients starting TNFi between 2014 and 2021 at Oslo University Hospital were included in a medical chart review study, and data were collected at three and twelve months after the start of treatment. Target serum drug levels were defined as ≥7.5 mg/L for adalimumab and ≥5 mg/L for infliximab.
resultsOf 141 included patients, 36% were in clinical and biochemical (combined) remission after twelve months. Among 102 treatment persistent patients, 54% were in combined remission after twelve months. Target drug level at three months was associated with clinical remission at twelve months (OR = 2.97, 95% CI [1.24-7.12]) and biochemical remission at twelve months (OR = 2.64, 95% CI [1.03-6.77]). In total, 56% of recorded dosage adjustments were related only to serum drug levels.
conclusionsCombined remission rates at twelve months for treatment persistent patients suggest that 46% should have been considered for a change of treatment according to the STRIDE II recommendations. A majority of dosage adjustments were made proactively. Target drug level at three months was associated with remission at twelve months and supports the use of proactive TDM.
