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

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon that requires continuous treatment. Treatment nonadherence, as well as pregnancy, can complicate disease management. This case describes a 23-year-old primigravida at 23 weeks' gestation with a history of UC who discontinued her treatment upon learning of her pregnancy. She presented with abdominal pain, bloody diarrhea, and systemic signs of infection. Imaging raised suspicion of appendicitis, and diagnostic laparoscopy revealed inflammatory involvement of the appendix and ascending colon, along with intra-abdominal fluid. Postoperatively, she was diagnosed with a severe UC flare and
