Acute liver failure in pregnancy.
Review in Indian journal of gastroenterology : official journal of the Indian Society of Gastroenterology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Liver function abnormalities are noted in a minority of pregnancies with multiple causes for the same. A small proportion of these develop severe liver injury and progress to acute liver failure (ALF). There is a discrete set of etiology for ALF in pregnancy and comprehensive understanding will help in urgent evaluation. Certain diseases such as acute fatty liver of pregnancy, hemolysis, elevated liver enzyme, low platelet (HELLP) syndrome and pre-eclampsia are secondary to pregnant state and can present as ALF. Quick and targeted evaluation with urgent institution of etiology-specific management, especially urgent delivery in patients with pregnancy-associated liver diseases, is the key to avoiding maternal deaths. Pregnancy, as also the fetal life, imparts a further layer of complication in assessment, prognosis and management of these sick patients with ALF. Optimal management often requires a multidisciplinary approach in a well-equipped centre. In this review, we discuss evaluation, assessment and management of pregnant patients with ALF, focussing on approach to pregnancy-associated liver diseases.
