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

There is a broad classification of the causes of acute liver failure (ALF) that include drug-induced liver injury (DILI). In this report, we aim to discuss the association between remdesivir, a novel therapeutic drug for hypoxic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia, and DILI with subsequent ALF in a patient who was recently treated with the drug in question. Remdesivir, which is a direct-acting nucleoside RNA polymerase inhibitor, is one of the only FDA-approved drugs on the market for COVID-19 pneumonia associated with hypoxia. Our case describes a patient with an extensive past medical history who was treated for COVID-19 pneumonia with remdesivir and subsequently developed ALF in the absence of all other possible etiologies. This association has only been highlighted in anecdotal case reports in the past and to a lesser degree in the safety documentation of remdesivir.
