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

A term male infant presented with congenital hepatic arterio-veno-portal shunts. A mass-like lesion in the left lobe of the liver received blood supply from not only the umbilical vein, but also the hepatic and inferior intrahepatic arteries, communicating with the hepatic and portal veins in a complicated manner, with an umbilical vein aneurysm. The blood flow of the arterio-veno-portal shunts spontaneously and gradually declined from the neonatal period to six years of age. Although mild high-output cardiac failure had developed, no life-threatening events or health problems originating from portosystemic shunts, such as pulmonary artery hypertension and hepatopulmonary syndrome, were observed. However, this report shows that scrupulous follow-up to identify pulmonary artery hypertension and hepatopulmonary syndrome should be continued because complete resolution of the arterio-veno-portal shunts was not obtained in this case.
