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

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-associated cholangiopathy is a biliary tract condition seen in AIDS patients who are severely immunosuppressed, contributing to significant mortality in this population, even in developed countries with access to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART).  We discuss a thirty-six-year-old human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive male, non-compliant with HAART therapy, who presented with a one-year history of weight loss, persistent fatigue, and chronic diarrhea, which had worsened significantly in the past few weeks. Routine laboratory studies on presentation indicated elevated liver enzymes and alkaline phosphatase, a CD4 count of 2 cells/mm
