Severe intrahepatic cholestasis and liver failure after stanozolol usage - case report and review of the literature.
Article in Clinical and experimental hepatology, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
Stanozolol is a 17α-alkylated synthetic anabolic steroid used illegally by bodybuilders. We present a 19-year-old man who was taking 50 mg of stanozolol intramuscularly, every other day for 2 months, to improve muscle mass. On admission, his bilirubin concentration was 44.34 mg/dl. The serum levels of liver enzymes were normal, with only alanine aminotransferase being slightly elevated. Liver biopsy revealed toxic hepatitis of minor grade with periportal fibrosis and intrahepatic cholestasis. Medical treatment of the patient was conservative. Despite the therapy the patient's general condition deteriorated - bilirubin level increased to 56.64 mg/dl, and INR rose to 1.7. Then we decided to administer low doses of hydrocortisone. As a result of the treatment, bilirubin concentration was 14.61 mg/dl after 2 weeks. Finally all hepatic enzymes returned to normal values 5 months after stanozolol was discontinued. This treatment appears to be safe and leads to a more rapid reduction of bilirubin.
