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

Ileocecal valve ulceration can arise from various causes, including infections, inflammatory bowel diseases, Behçet's disease, tumors and medications. We present a rare case of Henoch-Schönlein purpura (HSP)-associated ileocecal ulcer in a pediatric patient. The child initially presented with abdominal pain and subsequently developed extensive bilateral lower limb purpura on the third hospital day. Colonoscopic examination revealed erosions and shallow ulcerations localized to the ileocecal valve, with histopathological analysis revealing characteristic mucosal stromal edema and diffuse inflammatory cell infiltration. The patient exhibited marked clinical improvement following intravenous methylprednisolone pulse therapy. This case enriches the clinical spectrum of HSP and helps clinicians better understand its intestinal involvement.
