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

backgroundMagnetic Resonance Enterography (MRE) has emerged as a tool in diagnosing and monitoring Crohn's disease. Despite its importance, no comprehensive bibliometric analysis has focused on MRE's impact in this field. This study addresses this gap by analyzing the 100 most-cited articles related to MRE in Crohn's disease, revealing key trends and influential research in the field.

methodsTwo independent researchers utilized Scopus to identify relevant articles using predefined keywords. The articles were ranked by citation count, and detailed bibliographic data was collected. Advanced statistical analyses were conducted to identify research trends and evaluate article influence using citation metrics.

resultsOur study analyzed trends from 1990 to 2024, revealing a peak in research activity between 2008 and 2018, with the most articles (n = 52) published in 5 years from 2010 to 2014. Citation activity mirrored the trends with 100 most cited articles between 2008 and 2016, peaking in 2011 at nearly 7000 citations with a sharp decline after 2016. No significant correlation (p = 0.40) was identified between citation count and journal impact factor. Our study identified the shift in past research trends from fluoroscopy to MRE and the saturation in research on MRE in recent years.

conclusionOur study highlights a shift from fluoroscopy toward advanced MR techniques for managing Crohn's disease. ADVANCES IN KNOWLEDGE: Our study highlights a shift from fluoroscopy to MRE research in recent years. However, the plateau in MRE research underscores the need for innovative investigative approaches and novel research directions.
