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
Background: Adherence to 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA), an anchor drug for ulcerative colitis (UC), affects remission maintenance. This study aimed to investigate the current status of adherence to 5-ASA and identify the factors associated with adherence. Methods: We enrolled UC patients whose primary maintenance therapy was oral 5-ASA at our hospital between January 2017 and December 2018. The adherence status was examined using a questionnaire survey. Various factors, including patient background and disease activity, were also analyzed to identify those related to adherence. A second questionnaire with the same content was performed 1 year after the initial survey for comparison. Results: In total, 297 patients with UC answered the first questionnaire, of which 278 answered the second questionnaire. Complete adherence rates at the time of the first and second questionnaires were 49.8% (148/297) and 55.8% (155/278), respectively. Full-time employment ( Conclusions: UC patients with high adherence to 5-ASA showed a high rate of remission maintenance, so adherence should be improved by considering factors such as the number of medications taken, work status, and dietary habits.
