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

This case report presents an uncommon presentation of Crohn's disease (CD) complicated by an anal-Bartholin-perineal fistula. Notably, ultrasound was the initial imaging modality to demonstrate suspicious fistulous tract features in this case. Definitively, trans-fistula contrast-enhanced ultrasound (TF-CEUS) clearly visualized the fistula, providing real-time dynamic architectural details that were critical for diagnosis. TF-CEUS emerged as a valuable diagnostic adjunct in this case, offering novel insights into evaluating complex perianal fistulous disorders in CD, particularly when conventional imaging modalities like MRI yield inconclusive results.
