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

Glycogenic hepatopathy (GH), defined histologically by hepatocytic glycogen accumulation without fatty change or fibrosis, is a benign reversible condition. It presents clinically as hepatomegaly with elevated liver enzymes in young diabetic (type 1) patients with poor glycemic control. We report a case of a 20-year-old female with a history of poorly controlled type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and prior pancreatitis who presented with sharp epigastric pain and hepatomegaly. She was found to have diabetic ketoacidosis with elevated lipase and amylase. Though at first her symptoms were erroneously attributed to pancreatitis, a liver biopsy showing glycogenated nuclei led to a diagnosis of GH.
