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

backgroundVascular endothelial E-selectin expression is induced by proinflammatory cytokines and contributes to accumulation of leucocytes in tissues.

aimsTo investigate the role of E-selectin in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

methodsE-selectin expression was assessed in patients with ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease by measuring the concentration of circulating soluble E-selectin (sE-selectin) using ELISA, by immunohistochemistry of colonic biopsy specimens, and by abdominal immunoscintigraphy after injecting radiolabelled F(ab')2 fragment of a monoclonal anti-E-selectin antibody. The value of scintigraphy using anti-E-selectin was judged by a prospective comparative study of autologous leucocyte scanning and E-selectin antibody scanning in 17 patients with IBD.

resultsCirculating sE-selectin was elevated in patients with clinically active disease. Tissue expression of E-selectin was enhanced in patients with active inflammation, with weak or absent expression in inactive disease and healthy controls. In-111 labelled anti-E-selectin scintiscans were compared with Tc-99m labelled leucocyte scans performed 24 hours earlier. Twelve patients had areas of active inflammation on leucocyte scan while 11 patients had positive E-selectin scans. The results of the two scans were concordant in 14 patients, with those positive for both (10/17) showing similar disease localisation and extent.

conclusionsTissue E-selectin and circulating sE-selectin are increased during active inflammatory bowel disease. Anti-E-selectin imaging with radiolabelled monoclonal antibody identified areas of inflammation in Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. The technique should prove useful clinically for identifying the site and extent of disease.
