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 common and debilitating pathology that has acute, subacute, and chronic presentation, requiring prompt diagnosis and early intervention. Several serologic markers are found to be associated with the pathogenesis and progression of autoimmune hepatitis, most notably antinuclear antibodies and anti-smooth muscle antibodies [Front Immunol. 2018;9:609]. In addition, AIH is also characterized by the elevation of gamma globulin levels, mainly immunoglobulin G (IgG) [World J Gastroenterol. 2015;21(1):60-83]. Although the literature has well established the presence of increased IgG levels in AIH, few studies have evaluated the subtypes of IgG and their differential levels associated with AIH. Here, we present a rare case of AIH that lacks the common serologic markers but instead reveals an elevation in IgG1 level. Our patient was subsequently placed on corticosteroids, and her symptoms quickly resolved. We intend to introduce this case to the medical community in the hope of aiding in the proper diagnosis and timely intervention of subsequent cases with similar presentations.
