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

Background: Vedolizumab (VDZ), a gut-selective anti-integrin therapy, has demonstrated efficacy in ulcerative colitis (UC) clinical trials, but real-world long-term data from Asia, particularly from Chinese populations, remain limited. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the long-term effectiveness and safety of vedolizumab in Chinese patients with UC in a real-world setting over a 2-year period. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study conducted at a tertiary hospital in China, patients aged ≥18 years old who received VDZ for UC between December 2020 and August 2023 were enrolled. Information on the clinical characteristics, prior/concomitant treatment, and safety during the observation period was collected. Results: The data obtained from 112 patients (males, Conclusion: This real-world study confirms vedolizumab's sustained effectiveness in UC, with durable remission and excellent safety over 2 years. The findings support its position in treatment algorithms and highlight the value of early response assessment in guiding therapeutic decisions.
