Evaluating the Efficacy of a Small Interfering Ribonucleic Acid Molecule, Givosiran, in Treating Acute Intermittent Porphyria: A Systematic Review.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is a severe multiorgan dysfunction disorder that can be fatal if not treated promptly. The newest treatment modality involving small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules, givosiran, is administered for AIP. Although it has very beneficial effects in treating attacks of AIP, it comes with an extensive side effect profile that is not fully understood or studied. Hence, this novel drug model treatment's risk-benefit evaluation is still necessary. For relevant medical literature, we explored medical databases such as PubMed/Medline, PubMed Central, Cochrane Library, Internet Archive Scholar, Google Scholar, and Wiley Online Library. The selected papers were screened based on eligibility criteria and filtered through quality appraisal tools, and 13 finalized research papers were included in the study. Of the 13 identified papers, three were clinical trials, and 10 were review articles. The selected papers all discussed the effectiveness and side effects of givosiran in acute and recurrent attacks of AIP. The research papers showed decreased rates of acute attacks of AIP with givosiran and terminating recurrent attacks. But there are certain non-serious side effects, like fatigue and nausea. Also, there are some severe side effects, like pain. There is limited information on renal and liver function impairment using givosiran and the use of givosiran in patients with kidney and liver disease, for which further studies are required.
