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

We present the case of a 39-year-old woman with a history of severe ulcerative colitis (UC) that was refractory to 5-aminosalicylates, corticosteroids, and biologics, and who subsequently underwent total colectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA). She developed chronic antibiotic-refractory pouchitis (CARP) characterized by recurrent abdominal pain, cramping, and diarrhea unresponsive to standard treatments. A comprehensive workup, including testing for anti-tissue transglutaminase IgA antibodies, led to the diagnosis of de novo celiac disease, confirmed by endoscopic and histopathologic findings. Initiation of a gluten-free diet resulted in the resolution of symptoms, with no relapse observed during a 9-month follow-up. Our case highlights the importance of considering secondary etiologies such as celiac disease in patients with chronic refractory pouchitis and emphasizes the need for tailored management strategies.
