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

Introduction: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) represents a cluster of chronic idiopathic inflammatory disorders situated at the nexus of intricate interplays. The primary aim of the present investigation is to perform an umbrella review of metaanalyses, systematically offering a comprehensive overview of the evidence concerning risk factors for IBD. Methods: To achieve this, we searched reputable databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, from inception through April 2023. Two authors independently assessed the methodological quality of each metaanalysis using the AMSTAR tool and adhered to evidence classification criteria. Results: In total, we extracted 191 unique risk factors in meta-analyses, including 92 significantly associated risk factors. The top ten risk factors were human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection, IBD family history, periodontal disease, poliomyelitis, campylobacter species infection, hidradenitis suppurativa, psoriasis, use of proton pump inhibitors, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and western dietary pattern. Discussion: In conclusion, this umbrella review extracted 62 risk factors and 30 protective factors, most of which were related to underlying diseases, personal lifestyle and environmental factors. The findings in this paper help to develop better prevention and treatment measures to reduce the incidence of IBD, delay its progression, and reduce the burden of IBD-related disease worldwide.
