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 diseases (IBD) significantly influence sexual function due to their symptoms. The impact of the disease on sexuality and intimacy is a predominant concern for IBD patients, though data on sexual (SD) and erectile dysfunction (ED) and their determinants remain scarce. Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate sexual function and identify predictors of SD among patients with IBD during biological treatment. Material and methods: This prospective study included 135 adult patients with Crohn's disease ( Results: 43.7% of patients reported SD, with similar proportions in men and women ( Conclusions: SD and ED among patients treated with biologics were associated with psychological factors but not disease severity. The type of medication used to treat the underlying disease did not influence the development of SD. These findings underscore the need for a comprehensive understanding of sexual health and psychological support for IBD patients.
