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

Non-viral infections of the liver are rare to very rare compared to viral infections. They can be caused by various bacteria, helminths, protozoa, and fungi, often leading to liver involvement during dissemination. Some of these infections affect in particular immunocompromised individuals, while others need to be considered in the differential diagnostic work-up in patients returning from tropical countries. In cases where the infection occurs through oral ingestion of eggs, such as in cystic and alveolar echinococcosis, the liver is often the most commonly affected organ. Due to the diversity of non-viral liver infections and their varied clinical manifestations, a comprehensive discussion of all potential pathogens and their effects is not within the scope of this article. Therefore, only a few of these conditions will be discussed in more detail.
