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

There is increasing evidence that cannabidiol (CBD) use is associated with clinically significant liver enzyme (LE) elevations and drug-induced liver injury (DILI). The proportion of LE elevations and DILI events reported in the literature meet the Council for International Organizations of Medical Sciences' (CIOMS) classification of a common adverse drug reaction. However, these potential adverse events are unknown to many clinicians and may be overlooked. The increasing use of CBD for both medical and non-medical use necessitates clear direction in the diagnosis and management of CBD-associated hepatotoxicity. To our knowledge, no such clinical guidance currently exists. For people presenting with elevated LEs, CBD use should be screened for and be considered in the differential diagnosis. This narrative review will provide clinicians with guidance in the prevention, detection, and management of CBD-related hepatotoxicity.
