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

Congenital hepatic fibrosis (CHF) is a rare hereditary autosomal recessive disorder due to periportal fibrosis and ductal plate malformation. It is just one of many different malformations collectively named oculo-encephalo-hepato-renal syndrome. The major presenting feature is upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to portal hypertension secondary to the development of esophageal varices. Herein we report a case of CHF with retinitis pigmentosa but lacking the distinctive multisystem malformations associated with other well-known syndromes associated with CHF. In cases of CHF, search for other organ involvement is important at the time of presentation as well as during follow-up.
