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

backgroundMucosal healing (MH) is the major therapeutic target for Crohn's disease (CD). As the most commonly involved intestinal segment, small bowel (SB) assessment is crucial for CD patients. Yet, it poses a significant challenge due to its limited accessibility through conventional endoscopic methods.

aimTo establish a noninvasive radiomic model based on computed tomography enterography (CTE) for MH assessment in SBCD patients.

methodsSeventy-three patients diagnosed with SBCD were included and divided into a training cohort (

resultsOf the 73 patients enrolled, 25 patients achieved MH. The radiomic-clinical nomogram had an area under the ROC curve of 0.961 (95% confidence interval: 0.886-1.000) in the training cohort and 0.958 (0.877-1.000) in the test cohort and provided superior clinical benefit to either the clinical or radiomic models alone, as demonstrated by DCA.

conclusionThese results indicate that the CTE-based radiomic-clinical nomogram is a promising imaging biomarker for MH and serves as a potential noninvasive alternative to enteroscopy for MH assessment in SBCD patients.
