Sterile Nasal Septal Abscess in Ulcerative Colitis With Crypt Abscess-Like Neutrophilic Infiltration.
Article in The Laryngoscope, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 report a rare case of a sterile nasal septal abscess (NSA) occurring as an extraintestinal manifestation of ulcerative colitis (UC), accompanied by a novel histopathologic finding. A 40-year-old woman with relapsed UC presented with nasal swelling, purulent discharge, hematochezia, and skin lesions. Computed tomography revealed an anterior NSA, and emergent endoscopic drainage was performed. Despite broad-spectrum antibiotics, her condition worsened, and corticosteroids were initiated. Histopathologic analysis of the nasal mucosa demonstrated crypt abscess-like neutrophilic infiltration within glandular structures, resembling colonic crypt abscesses in active UC. Cultures were negative, and her condition improved with immunosuppressive therapy. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of a sterile NSA with crypt abscess-like structures in the nasal mucosa, expanding the histopathologic spectrum of sinonasal manifestations in UC. Early recognition and prompt immunosuppressive therapy are essential to avoid complications such as saddle nose deformity.
