Acute-on-Chronic Liver Failure From Acquired Hemochromatosis in a Patient With Sickle Cell Disease.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Late presentations of liver failure were previously rare in clinical practice given the high mortality of sickle cell disease (SCD) and shorter life expectancy compared to the general population. With advancements in therapeutics for SCD, patients with SCD have increased lifespans, and with them, patients are placed at increased risk for differing patterns of chronic and end-organ failures. We describe a case of an elderly patient who had multiple chronic complications from her years of SCD, including end-stage renal disease (ESRD) on hemodialysis, acquired hemochromatosis, cirrhosis, and pulmonary hypertension. During this presentation for shortness of breath, she developed acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) with a significant lower gastrointestinal bleed and hemorrhagic shock. Her family ultimately elected to pursue comfort care measures, and she passed later that day.
