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

Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is characterized as an autoimmune disease that involves the destruction of intrahepatic bile ducts, characteristically leading to a cholestatic liver. The presence of disease-specific antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA) is the gold standard to diagnose PBC. Typically, PBC is known to affect female populations exceedingly over their male counterparts. Associated autoimmune diseases include Sjogren's and Raynaud's syndrome, which are also more prevalent in women. The low incidence rates of men affected with PBC, especially with a concomitant type 1 diabetes diagnosis, have resulted in little being known about the clinical course of the disease in this particular population group. Current research suggests no significant histological, serological, or biochemical differences between PBC in males and females. However, some symptoms and clinical associations may be different. This case report presents the rare case of a male patient with type 1 diabetes recently diagnosed with PBC.
