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

Biliary atresia (BA) is a rare cholangiopathy in neonates, leading to end-stage liver failure in the first years of life, when left untreated. Kasai procedure aims to restore biliary drainage to achieve native liver survival. While liver transplantation is the necessary treatment in children with failure of the Kasai procedure, the number of native liver survivors in the long-term remains around 20-30%. Reports on malignancies in native livers of children, adolescents and adults with BA are increasing, including cases of hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, hepatoblastoma and small intestinal adenocarcinoma. In this review we summarize the reports, with focus on tumor markers, imaging technologies and reported outcomes. Furthermore, we discuss recent advances in surveillance strategies in adults with chronic liver impairment.
