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

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which encompasses ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD), is a chronic inflammatory condition of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract that presents complex diagnostic and management challenges. Early detection and treatment of IBD is paramount, as IBD can present with serious complications, including bowel perforation, arthritis, and colorectal cancer. Most forms of diagnosis and therapeutic management, like ileocolonoscopy and upper endoscopy are highly invasive and require extensive preparation at great discomfort to patients. 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (18F-FDG-PET) imaging can be a potential solution to the current limitations in imaging for IBD. This review explores the utility and limitations of various imaging modalities used to detect and manage IBD including ileocolonoscopy, magnetic resonance enterography (MRE), gastrointestinal ultrasound (IUS), and 18F-FDG-PET/computed tomography (18F-FDG-PET/CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (18F-FDG-PET/MR). This review has an emphasis on PET imaging and highlights its benefits in detection, management, and monitoring therapeutic response of UC and CD.
