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

Congenital portosystemic shunts (CPSS) are rare congenital vascular anomalies characterized by abnormal connections between the portal vein and systemic circulation, bypassing the liver. They can lead to complications such as recurrent encephalopathy, liver nodules, portopulmonary hypertension, and neurocognitive issues due to hyperammonemia and rarely kidney involvement. Hepatic hemodynamic changes can lead to liver nodules and hepatocellular carcinoma, particularly in extrahepatic shunts. We describe here an 11-year-old girl with type 1 intrahepatic portosystemic shunt with focal nodular hyperplasia in the liver, presenting with nephrotic syndrome that was diagnosed as membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis on kidney biopsy and that responded partially to therapy with immunosuppressants.
