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

Background: Accurately assessing the activity of Crohn's disease (CD) is crucial for determining prognosis and guiding treatment strategies for CD patients. Objective: This study aimed to develop and validate a nomogram for assessing CD activity. Methods: The semi-automatic segmentation method and PyRadiomics software were employed to segment and extract radiomics features from the spectral CT enterography images of lesions in 107 CD patients. The radiomic score (rad-score) was calculated using the radiomic signature formula. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified the independent risk factors of erythrocyte sedimentation rate, fecal calprotectin, and Inflammatory Bowel Disease Questionnaire (IBDQ), and a nomogram was constructed in combination with rad-score. The nomogram underwent evaluation and testing in the training set (n = 84) and validation set (n = 23), respectively. Results: The discrimination performance of the combined (AUC 0.877) was marginally superior to that of IBDQ + clinical (AUC 0.854). However, there was no significant difference in AUC between the two models in the validation set ( Conclusion: The nomogram, combined with laboratory data, IBDQ and rad-score, presents an accurate and reliable method for assessing CD activity. Clinical Impact: The nomogram enhances the potential for personalized treatment plans and better disease management, making it a valuable tool for clinical practice.
