Kombucha-Induced Massive Hepatic Necrosis: A Case Report and a Review of Literature.
Article in Gastro hep advances, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Here, we present a case report of a healthy Asian woman with no past medical history presenting with severe acute liver injury associated with ingestion of kombucha. We also discuss the active ingredients in kombucha and the evidence behind its efficacy. This case emphasizes that although herbal teas have been proposed to have numerous health benefits, much is unknown about the amount that can be safely ingested.
