Anaphylaxis to a Vedolizumab Infusion following Drug Holiday in a Patient with Ulcerative Colitis: A Case Report.
Article in Case reports in gastroenterology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Vedolizumab is a commonly prescribed biologic agent due to its safety profile and clinical efficacy. Severe infusion-related reactions are exceedingly rare, with no previously documented cases of anaphylaxis to vedolizumab infusion following a drug holiday. Case Presentation: We report the case of a 65-year-old male with ulcerative colitis who had a severe anaphylactic reaction to the first re-induction infusion of vedolizumab following a 30-month drug holiday. No pre-infusion prophylactic medication was administered. Upon commencement of the infusion, the patient developed anaphylactic symptoms including airway compromise that required intensive care unit admission and treatment with an adrenaline infusion. Conclusion: Anaphylactic reactions to vedolizumab after a drug holiday can occur. As is done for infliximab, we recommend administration of an antipyretic, antihistamine, and corticosteroid prior to vedolizumab re-induction infusions when it is given after a drug holiday.
