Acute fatty liver of pregnancy and concomitant medical conditions: A review of cases at a quaternary obstetric hospital.
Article in Obstetric medicine, 2018. 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
Acute fatty liver of pregnancy is a rare complication of pregnancy that may result in fulminant hepatic failure. We present a review of all patients presenting to a quaternary obstetric hospital over a 15-year period, with particular regard to biochemical changes, results of gene testing, and pre-existing conditions. Seventeen patients with acute fatty liver of pregnancy were identified. Six patients were documented to have pre-existing gastrointestinal disease; five with inflammatory bowel disease, and one with influenza A hepatitis. Antithrombin III levels were low in this study, consistent with previously published data. There were no recurrences of acute fatty liver of pregnancy in nine subsequent pregnancies to seven mothers. The authors are not aware of any literature addressing pre-existing medical conditions which may predispose to acute fatty liver of pregnancy.
