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

Either acute or sub-acute Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS) with diffuse occlusion of hepatic veins has a high mortality rate and remains challenging for clinical treatment. We aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) as a treatment for BCS with diffuse occlusion of hepatic veins. From January 2007 to December 2010, 100 patients were randomly recruited onto this study and 91 patients were treated with TIPS. 14 patients were defined as acute BCS group and 86 patients as sub-acute group. Patients with acute BCS had a significantly higher rate of jaundice whereas a lower rate of abdominal and chest varices, gastroesophageal variceal bleeding and refractory ascites than sub-acute group (P < 0.001). TIPS was technically successful in all 91 patients (12 in acute group). The portosystemic pressure gradient (PSG) was decreased to normal level, while total bilirubin (TBIL) and liver function were significantly improved. During follow-up period, the mortality rate of 91 patients who underwent TIPS was 6.59% (6/91), whereas 88.89% of 9 patients who didn't receive TIPS procedure (2 in acute group). Collectively, TIPS is an effective and safe approach in treating BCS with diffuse occlusion of hepatic veins, which should be performed in time.
