Figure 3. Illustrative. Assessed outcomes plotted on a common standardised axis so that direction and relative magnitude can be compared at a glance. The estimates are not on a common natural scale and the intervals are the Institute's standardised representation of the reported precision, not the published confidence intervals. Published intervals appear in the per-indication extracts and in the text below.

§3.1Inflammatory bowel disease and mucosal barrier disorders

Anchor outcome. Clinical remission.

Effect as recorded. Response defined as ≥20 % reduction in parenteral support volume in 63 % versus 30 % with placebo at 24 weeks; difference 33 percentage points (95 % CI 16 to 49).[1,2]

Certainty. Moderate certainty The indication is short-bowel syndrome with intestinal failure, not inflammatory bowel disease; the Institute maps it to the mucosal-barrier indication group for indexing purposes and states the distinction explicitly.

Contributing trials. STEPS · STEPS-2 · TED-PAEDIATRIC. Full structured abstracts are published for each.
