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

Our understanding of multiple sclerosis (MS) has led to the development of new therapeutic strategies, including ocrelizumab, a third-generation humanized anti-CD20 antibody. Ocrelizumab is largely well tolerated with favorable effectiveness, however, it has been associated with reports of colitis presenting weeks to months following infusion. We present a case of severe localized colitis in the setting of recent surgery and chronic ocrelizumab use. High-dose IV hydrocortisone was initiated, and the patient showed gradual improvement. Repeat imaging after discharge showed near-complete resolution of the patient's condition. This case aims to increase awareness of possible postoperative severe localized colitis in MS patients on Ocrevus.
