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

Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a disorder causing chronic hepatic inflammation. Its clinical presentation is highly variable from the affected child might have only biochemical evidence of liver dysfunction or present in hepatic failure. It is important to distinguish AIH from other forms of chronic hepatitis because a high percentage of cases respond to immunosuppressive therapy. In this article, we describe the clinical presentation, biochemical and histological findings, treatment, and clinical outcome of the four children with AIH in a tertiary care center in Mumbai. Most patients with AIH have high levels of immunoglobulin. All four cases showed high serum Ig G levels and responded to oral prednisolone only. AIH should be excluded for all patients with symptoms or signs of prolonged, relapsing, or severe liver disease so that treatment can be promptly initiated and morbidity can be reduced.
