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

The observation of bile duct paucity is an important diagnostic finding in children, occurring in roughly 11% of pediatric liver biopsies. Alagille syndrome (ALGS) is a well-defined syndromic form of intrahepatic bile duct paucity that is accompanied by a number of other key features, including cardiac, facial, ocular, and vertebral abnormalities. In the absence of these additional clinical characteristics, intrahepatic bile duct paucity results in a broad differential diagnosis that requires supplementary testing and characterization. Nearly 30 years after ALGS was first described, genetic studies identified a causative gene,
