Rare Case of Leukemoid Reaction in a Patient With Severe Alcoholic Hepatitis.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Alcoholic hepatitis results from excessive alcohol consumption in patients with or without underlying chronic liver disease. Leukemoid reactions have been associated with poor outcomes in severe alcoholic hepatitis. There are only a handful of reported cases describing this relationship, and the striking similarity in these cases was a high short-term mortality rate. We believe that these patients represent a unique subgroup of patients with alcoholic hepatitis and that leukemoid reaction is a poor prognostic indicator in this condition. Here, we describe a case of 55-year-old male with severe alcoholic hepatitis with superimposed candida esophagitis who was found to have leukemoid reaction during diagnostic workup.
