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

Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) usually develops based on acute decompensation (AD) of cirrhosis and is characterized by intense systemic inflammation, multiple organ failure, and high short-term mortality. Validated biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of ACLF remain to be clarified. Metabolomics is an emerging method used to measure low-molecular-weight metabolites and is currently frequently implemented to understand pathophysiological processes involved in disease progression, as well as to search for new diagnostic or prognostic biomarkers of various disorders. The characterization of metabolites in ACLF has recently been described via metabolomics. The role of metabolites in the pathogenesis of ACLF deserves further investigation and improvement and could be the basis for the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. In this review, we focused on the contributions of metabolomics on uncovering metabolic profiles in patients with ACLF, the key metabolic pathways that are involved in the progression of ACLF, and the potential metabolite-associated therapeutic targets for ACLF.
