Quality of life among patients with autoimmune hepatitis in remission: A comparative study.
Article in Medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is lower in individuals with autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) than in the general population. However, previous evaluations of HRQOL for AIH have included a broad range of disease activities. The aim of this study was to clarify HRQOL among patients with AIH in remission.We assessed HRQOL in patients with AIH in remission, patients with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) with eradicated hepatitis C virus (HCV) and patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) using the Japanese version of the Chronic Liver Disease Questionnaire (CLDQ).Participants comprised 62 patients with AIH in remission, 39 patients with CHC with eradicated HCV and 66 patients with PBC. Median ages of patients were 63, 69, and 64 years, respectively. Overall score (5.6 vs 5.9, P = .02) and fatigue (5.2 vs 5.6, P = .01) and worry (5.6 vs 6.0, P = .01) domain scores of the CLDQ were significantly lower in patients with AIH in remission than in CHC with eradicated HCV, and similar to scores except for the systemic symptoms domain in patients with PBC. Disease duration was associated with lower scores on systemic symptoms and activity domains of the CLDQ in patients with AIH in remission.Patients with AIH in remission show impaired HRQOL associated with disease duration.
