Study on ferritin and liver injury in pediatric hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis associated with infection.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Summarize and analyze the clinical characteristics of children with infection-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (IAHLH) complicated by liver injury, and investigate the correlation between ferritin (FERR) and liver injury indicators. A total of 90 children with IAHLH admitted to Hebei Children's Hospital from November 1, 2017 to September 30, 2024 were selected as the research subjects. The patients were divided into liver injury group and non-liver injury group based on the presence of liver damage. The clinical features and laboratory test differences between the two groups were analyzed, and the correlation between ferritin and liver injury markers was investigated. (1) Among the 90 cases of IAHLH, 61cases (67.8%) were complicated by liver injury. In the liver injury group, FERR and D-dimer (DD) were significantly higher than those in the non-liver injury group (P < 0.05), while fibrinogen (FIB) and albumin were significantly lower (P < 0.05). Moreover, the liver injury group was more likely to develop to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) (P = 0.021). (2) FERR was positively correlated with indicators such as alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and DD (P < 0.05), and negatively correlated with indicators such as albumin (ALB) (P < 0.05). FERR has a certain correlation with liver injury in pediatric hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis associated with infection. Monitoring FERR can help evaluate the degree of liver injury and alert to the occurrence of MODS, providing a basis for early clinical intervention.
