Similarities and Differences in Autoimmune Hepatitis Epidemiology between East and West: Autoimmune Hepatitis in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and South Asia.
Review in Inflammatory intestinal diseases, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundAutoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a relatively rare disease that can develop regardless of age or ethnicity. However, its clinical features differ between eastern and western populations due to several heterogeneous genetic and environmental factors. We herein report the clinical characteristics of AIH patients in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and South Asia. SUMMARY AND KEY MESSAGES: The prevalence of AIH in eastern countries is considered to be lower than in western countries. Although a few young patients with type 2 AIH have been observed in South Asia, most patients in Asia are middle-aged women with type 1 AIH who respond well to steroid-based immunosuppressive therapy. Human leukocyte antigen DR4 is suggested to be an influential factor in the genetic background of AIH patients in Asia, particularly in East Asia. Notably, AIH may be induced by some societal- or culture-associated medicines, including herbal medicines. The IAIHG (International Autoimmune Hepatitis Group) scoring systems are generally accepted as the standard diagnostic methods for AIH in Asian countries. The results of repeated nationwide surveys in Japan suggest that the clinical features of AIH patients in East Asia are changing, with IgG levels and rates of anti-nuclear antibody positivity decreasing.
