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

We have shown that the contact (kallikrein-kinin) system is involved in the pathogenesis of experimental enterocolitis. We now investigate activation of the contact and coagulation pathways, platelets, and neutrophils in active and inactive ulcerative colitis patients as compared to normal controls. In active ulcerative colitis patients, a significant decrease of plasma prekallikrein, high molecular weight kininogen, and C1 inhibitor levels was observed as compared with controls, as well as prekallikrein activation on western blots. Significant elevation of prothrombin fragment (F1 + 2), which indicates thrombin generation, and elastase-alpha 1-antitrypsin complexes, reflecting neutrophil activation, were found in patients with active disease. Plasma beta-thromboglobulin, a marker of platelet activation, was elevated in both active and inactive disease and appears to be a feature of ulcerative colitis. Activation of contact and coagulation pathways, as well as neutrophils, may mediate inflammation in the active phase of ulcerative colitis.
