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

Alcoholic liver disease is one of the leading causes of hepatitis, cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatic carcinoma. Alcoholic hepatitis refers to the acute onset of symptomatic hepatitis. We describe a patient who presented with alcoholic hepatitis with direct hyperbilirubinemia, elevated alkaline phosphatase (ALP), and hypertriglyceridemia. All the imaging and laboratory work excluded obstructive causes, and liver biopsy confirmed the diagnosis. Alcoholic hepatitis is a common condition, but some unusual presentations can lead one to think of uncommon pathologies. This case reflects that alcoholic hepatitis can present with high levels of triglycerides as well as a cholestatic pattern with direct hyperbilirubinemia and ALP without an obvious obstruction cause.
