Development of Autoimmune Hepatitis after COVID-19 Infection in Vaccinated Women.
Article in Reviews on recent clinical trials, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeSARS-CoV-2 infection has been associated with the impairment of several organs, including the liver. In addition, cases of autoimmune hepatitis have been described in association with COVID-19 disease. According to some case reports, vaccination has also been suggested to elicit the immune liver disorder. CASE DESCRIPTION: We report on the case series of two middle-aged women developing COVID-19 infection despite a completed vaccination schedule. More interestingly, the infection was followed by the onset of acute hepatitis with a significant increase in the values of liver function tests (x 10 normal values). After ruling out the main causes of liver damage (viral, toxic, etc.), a diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis was made and supported by liver histology in both cases. The clinical picture was quickly reverted with immunosuppressive (steroid) therapy, also confirming the diagnosis.
conclusionWe observed a possible relationship between COVID-19 infection and the onset of autoimmune hepatitis and also described this occurrence in vaccinated subjects. It remains to be clarified whether repeated exposure to viral antigens (vaccination plus true infection) or specific emerging viral genotype (omicron strain) may facilitate the onset of this immune liver disease.
