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

backgroundIn this study, we evaluate the clinical impact of psychiatric illnesses (PI) on the hospital outcomes of patients admitted with alcoholic liver disease (ALD).

methodsFrom the National Inpatient Sample from 2012-2017, patients with alcoholic cirrhosis or alcoholic hepatitis were selected and stratified using the presence/absence of PI (which was a composite of psychiatric conditions). The cases were propensity score-matched to PI-absent controls and were compared to the following endpoints: mortality, death due to suicide, length of stay (LOS), hospitalization charges, and hepatic complications.

resultsAfter matching, there were 122,907 PI with and 122,907 without PI. Those with PI were younger (51.8 vs. 51.9 years p = 0.02) and more likely to be female (39.2 vs. 38.7% p = 0.01); however, there was no difference in race. Patients with PI had lower rates of alcoholic cirrhosis but higher rates of alcoholic hepatitis/alcoholic hepatic steatosis. In multivariate, patients with PI had lower rates of all-cause mortality (aOR 0.51 95%CI 0.49-0.54); however, they experienced higher rates of deaths due to suicide (aOR 3.00 95%CI 1.56-5.78) and had longer LOS (aOR 1.02 95%CI 1.01-1.02).

conclusionPresence of PI in ALD patients is associated with prolonged hospital stay and higher rates deaths due to suicide.
