Metformin-Induced Acute Hepatitis.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Metformin is considered an initial oral pharmacotherapy of choice for treating hyperglycemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Although safe in the vast majority of the population, rare side effects will come to light as the prevalence of T2DM continues to rise. We present a rare case of metformin-induced hepatotoxicity and possibly the first reported case of dose-dependent metformin-induced hepatotoxicity. This case report aims to make clinicians aware of this infrequent yet significant adverse reaction that can arise with metformin therapy.
