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

backgroundCongenital hepatic fibrosis (CHF) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by variable degrees of periportal fibrosis and malformation of bile ducts. CHF is generally accompanied by a variety of conditions or syndromes with other organ involvement. CASE SUMMARY: We report a 5-year-4-month-old Chinese boy with congenital hypothyroidism (CH) diagnosed with CHF. The patient was diagnosed with CH by a newborn screening test and has since been taking levothyroxine. He has developed normally without neurocognitive deficits. Abnormal liver function was observed in the patient at the age of 4 years and 11 mo, and elevated levels of liver function indices were persistent for 5 mo. Radiological imaging indicated hepatospleno-megaly without narrowing of the portal vein but dilated splenic vein. A liver biopsy confirmed the pathological features of CHF. Genetic testing revealed two novel homozygous mutations, namely, c.2141-3T>C variant in

conclusionHerein, we report the first case of a Chinese boy with comorbidity of CHF and CH, carrying both
