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

Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) represents a chronic cholestatic liver disease with fibroobliterative sclerosis of intra- and/or extrahepatic bile ducts, eventually leading to biliary cirrhosis. The association with human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and non-HLA haplotypes and the presence of autoantibodies in sera of PSC patients support a crucial role for immune-mediated mechanisms in the initiation and progression of PSC. The strong clinical association between PSC and inflammatory bowel diseases led to intriguing pathogenetic concepts, in which the inflamed gut with translocation of bacterial products and homing of gut-primed memory T lymphocytes via aberrantly expressed adhesion molecules plays a fundamental role. Genetically or chemically modified bile composition was shown to induce sclerosing cholangitis and liver fibrosis in a number of animal models ("toxic bile concept"). The potential role of vascular injury with ischemia of bile duct epithelium cells in the development of sclerosing cholangitis is supported by animal models of endothelial cell injury showing close morphological similarities with human PSC.
