Pouchitis.
Review in Mediators of inflammation, 1998. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Pouchitis is a major long-term complication of the continent ileostomy as well as the ileoanal pouch anastomosis. When diagnosed on the basis of clinical, endoscopic and histologic features, this syndrome has been demonstrated almost exclusively in patients with ulcerative colitis. The clinical course, the endoscopic findings and the histologic abnormalities resemble those of ulcerative colitis. The association with extra-intestinal manifestations further supports the hypothesis that pouchitis represents ulcerative colitis in the small bowel. All ileal reservoirs show bacterial overgrowth, especially of anaerobes. As a response to this altered intraluminal environment chronic inflammation and incomplete colonic metaplasia occur. The efficiency of metronidazole does suggest that bacteriological factors play an important role in the pathogenesis of pouchitis.
