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

Alagille syndrome and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis are conditions that can affect multiple organs. Advancements in molecular testing have aided in the diagnosis of both. The impairment of normal bile flow and secretion leads to the various hepatic manifestations of these diseases. Medical management of Alagille syndrome and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis remains mostly targeted on supportive care focusing on quality of life, cholestasis, and fat-soluble vitamin deficiency. The most difficult therapeutic issue is typically related to pruritus, which can be managed by various medications such as ursodeoxycholic acid, rifampin, cholestyramine, and antihistamines. Surgical operations were previously used to disrupt enterohepatic recirculation, but recent medical advancements in the use of ileal bile acid transport inhibitors have shown great efficacy for the treatment of pruritus in both Alagille syndrome and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis.
