The Role of Topical Tacrolimus in the Management of Inflammatory Bowel Disease: A Comprehensive Review.
Review in Journal of clinical medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Management of ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease, the main subtypes of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), focuses on the induction and maintenance of remission. Tacrolimus, a member of a group of drugs termed calcineurin inhibitors, may have a role in the medical management of IBD when given either systemically or topically. This review aimed to evaluate the available data focusing on the use of topical tacrolimus in the management of IBD. Reports of the use of topical tacrolimus in IBD were extracted from databases up to 31 May 2024. Topical tacrolimus therapy appears to have reasonable efficacy in the induction and maintenance of remission in patients with refractory IBD, with an acceptable safety profile. Overall, the available data are supportive of the use of topical tacrolimus in selected patients. Further comparative clinical studies are required to more fully delineate the role of this drug.
