A Hematological Travesty in the Setting of Alcohol Use Disorder and Liver Cirrhosis.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Excessive ethanol consumption is associated with an increased risk of developing health complications, especially in individuals with pre-existing thrombocytopenia and cirrhosis. Here, we describe a case of a patient with a history of alcoholic cirrhosis, hypertension, and thrombocytopenia, presenting with significant decline following an incidence of binge drinking. Radiography identified a large non-lobar intraparenchymal hemorrhage. However, due to severe thrombocytopenia that was unresponsive to platelet therapy, the possibility of pursuing any form of surgical intervention was negated. Surgical contraindication and a lack of response to subsequent medical management contributed to the family's decision to opt for conservative medical treatment and comfort care. This case showcases the potential for liver cirrhosis in the setting of chronic alcohol use disorder to pave the way for terminal intracerebral hemorrhage.
