Gallstone Hepatitis Caused by Transient Common Bile Duct Obstruction in a Middle-Aged Woman.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
The interpretation of hepatocholangial laboratory test results is challenging. Possible liver biochemical tests include the evaluation of alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, gamma-glutamyl transferase, 5'-nucleotidase, lactate dehydrogenase, bilirubin, and albumin levels, as well as prothrombin time and international normalized ratio. When liver enzyme levels are elevated, R-values are generally used for diagnosis. A 62-year-old woman presented to our hospital with the chief complaint of abdominal pain and was consequently diagnosed with gallstone hepatitis based on her blood test results. Generally, gallstone hepatitis manifests as elevated liver enzyme levels showing a hepatocellular pattern, while common bile duct obstructions show a cholestatic pattern. Since gallstone hepatitis is indistinguishable from viral and ischemic hepatitis in the early stages of onset, it is vital to monitor changes in symptoms, biochemical tests, and imaging results over time to diagnose this disease.
