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

Objectives and study: Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) share common features of inflammation to a greater extent in children than in adults. However, histopathological scoring systems of mucosal inflammation are usually available only for either one of these entities. The IBD-DCA score is the first of its kind to incorporate both into one scoring system but still lacks validation in pediatric IBD. Methods: An existing data of a multiplexed gene expression analysis of mucosal biopsies of 25 patients diagnosed with either CD ( Results: Scoring revealed 7 low and 9 high DCA samples for CD, whereas for UC only high DCA were scored. DEG analysis revealed 130 upregulated genes in the high DCA group compared to the low DCA group. 11 genes were identified as hub genes playing a pivotal role in immune regulation, among those several cyto- or chemokines (IL1B, CCL20, CXCL1/2), costimulatory receptors (IL2RA, CD80, TLR2) and modulatory proteins like PD-L1 and IDO1. Conclusion: Our results indicate that inflammatory activity rather as assessed by the IBD-DCA score rather than the underlying disease entity significantly alters the transcriptomic signature in mucosal specimens of pediatric IBD patients.
