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

Alcoholic liver disease (ALD) represents a spectrum of disorders, ranging from simple steatosis to severe alcoholic hepatitis and cirrhosis. The severe form of ALD comprises multiple problems in the liver, including inflammation, hepatocellular damage, fibrosis, and impaired liver regeneration, and likely requires combinational therapies. In this review, we discuss recently identified therapeutic targets that inhibit inflammation, ameliorate hepatocyte death, and promote liver repair in ALD, with a focus on our recent studies on the immunosuppressive drug prednisolone and the hepatoprotective cytokine interleukin-22. Clinical trials examining prednisolone plus interleukin-22 therapy for severe alcoholic hepatitis are currently under consideration.
