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

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) are chronic inflammatory disorders influenced by microbial, environmental, genetic, and immune factors. The introduction of biological agents has transformed IBD therapy, improving symptoms, reducing complications, and enhancing patients' quality of life. However, approximately 30% of patients exhibit primary non-response, and 50% experience a loss of response over time. Genetic and non-genetic factors contribute to variability in treatment outcomes. This systematic review aims to thoroughly analyze and assess existing studies exploring the relationships between genetic variations and individual responses to biologic drugs, in order to identify genetic markers that are predictive of treatment efficacy, risk of adverse effects, or drug toxicity, thereby informing clinical practice and guiding future research. PubMed and EMBASE papers were reviewed by three independent reviewers according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses [PRISMA] guidelines. Of the 883 records screened, 99 met the inclusion criteria. The findings of this review represent an initial step toward personalized medicine in IBD, with the potential to improve clinical outcomes in biological therapy.
