Review in Zhonghua gan zang bing za zhi = Zhonghua ganzangbing zazhi = Chinese journal of hepatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is one of the severe complications of decompensated stage cirrhosis that causes cerebral dysfunction due to hepatic insufficiency and/or portosystemic shunts, and it usually manifests as a wide spectrum of neurological or psychiatric abnormalities ranging from subclinical alterations to coma. The pathogenesis of HE is complex, although ammonia toxicity, oxidative stress, inflammation, intestinal dysbiosis, and others among them mainly play an important role. The treatment for HE lacks specific drugs, and the current available drugs include non-absorbable disaccharides (lactulose), antibiotics (rifaximin), and other therapies (oral branched-chain amino acids, intravenous injection of L-ornithine-L-aspartic acid, probiotics). Recent research has shown that human albumin is a safe and effective treatment for HE, improving not only cognitive function but also enhancing patients' quality of life.
