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

Till date, comparison of clinical characteristics in acute liver failure (ALF) between adults and children has not been performed. In this study, authors retrospectively collected data on adult acute liver failure (AALF) and pediatric acute liver failure (PALF) in seven hospitals in different areas of China from January 2007 through December 2012. A total of 177 AALF cases and 32 PALF cases were eventually included. Several vital clinical variables were significantly different between AALF and PALF, including serum alkaline phosphatase, serum creatinine, serum urea nitrogen, serum lactate dehydrogenase, platelet count, prothrombin activity, international normalized ratio and blood ammonia. It is concluded that experience from AALF could not be proper for PALF.
