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

Background: Hypoxic hepatitis (HH) is commonly seen in critically ill patients, such as those with cardiac shock, sepsis, and respiratory failure. However, data are limited regarding its impact on the prognosis of patients with cardiac arrest (CA). Methods: We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies from PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library from inception to July 30, 2024. Studies were included if they focused on adult CA patients with HH compared to controls and had a clear definition of HH (defined as a rapid elevation in liver enzyme levels > 20 times the upper limit of normal after CA). The primary outcome was all-cause mortality.Subgroup analyses, sensitivity analyses, and generic inverse variance analyses were conducted. Results: Six studies with 3,005 adults were included. The median prevalence of HH was 16.3 % (ranging from 7.2 to 24.7 %). Overall, patients with HH had a significantly higher risk of all-cause mortality than those without (odds ratio [OR] = 3.49; 95 % CI, 2.19-5.57; Conclusions: Hypoxic hepatitis is not a rare complication after CA, and was independently associated with all-cause mortality. Further prospective, well-designed studies are needed to validate our findings.
