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

Hepatopathy induced by vincristine, actinomycin D and cyclophosphamide (VAC) is a potentially lethal complication of VAC chemotherapy for pediatric malignancy, which is managed by conventional anticoagulation and liver-supporting treatment alone. We report a case of VAC-induced hepatopathy with coagulopathy and severe inflammation. A 15-year-old male with rhabdomyosarcoma receiving adjuvant chemotherapy presented with refractory thrombocytopenia, followed by abdominal tenderness and non-neutropenic fever. Hepatic dysfunction and coagulopathy subsequently emerged with persistent fever. This condition indicated disseminated intravascular coagulation. A diagnosis of 'very severe' sinusoidal obstruction syndrome/veno-occlusive disease (SOS/VOD) was established in accordance with the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation diagnostic criteria for hepatic SOS/VOD in children. Early administration of recombinant thrombomodulin (rTM) (380 U/kg/day) and prednisolone (1.8 mg/kg/day) successfully controlled the condition. Serum concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines increased with hepatopathy development but immediately decreased after drug initiation. rTM administration may be promising for the control of inflammatory VAC-induced hepatopathy.
