A case of primary biliary cholangitis overlapping with type 2 autoimmune hepatitis.

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
A 42-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with cholestatic liver injury. Serological examination revealed anti-mitochondrial M2 antibody positivity and anti-nuclear antibody and anti-smooth muscle antibody negativity. Histological examination of the first liver biopsy revealed chronic nonsuppurative destructive cholangitis with epithelioid granulomas. Ursodeoxycholic acid therapy successfully treated her cholestasis. Sixteen months later, she developed acute icteric hepatitis with elevation of serum aspartate and alanine aminotransferase levels. Anti-mitochondrial M2 positivity and anti-nuclear antibody and anti-smooth muscle antibody negativity persisted at that time. However, it became clear that anti-liver kidney microsomal type 1 antibody was positive. Histological examination of the second liver biopsy demonstrated scarce interface hepatitis and evident parenchymal inflammation and centrilobular zonal necrosis. Her liver biochemical test results promptly improved with the addition of prednisolone therapy. Considering the findings, she was diagnosed with primary biliary cholangitis-type 2 autoimmune hepatitis overlap syndrome. According to a literature review, this is an extremely rare autoimmune overlap syndrome.
