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 and aims: Currently, research on biopsy-proven acute drug-induced liver injury (DILI) remains limited. This study aimed to identify clinical characteristics and risk factors for significant hepatic inflammation in patients with acute DILI. Methods: An ambispective cohort study was conducted on biopsy-proven acute DILI patients admitted to our hospital from 2012 to 2018. Using the Scheuer scoring system, patients were categorized into G0-2 or G3-4 groups and followed up for 12 months after first admission. Clinical characteristics and outcomes were retrieved from medical records. Results: The median age of the 157 enrolled patients (65.6% female) was 40.4 (interquartile range (IQR), 31.9-49.1) years. The median latency and length of hospitalization were 30.0 (IQR, 5.0-60.0) and 18.0 (IQR, 12.0-26.0) days. The proportions of patients in the G0-2 and G3-4 groups were 54.8% and 45.2%, respectively. Logistic regression analysis revealed that females (odds ratio (OR): 2.623, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.169-5.887, Conclusion: Acute DILI patients with high-risk factors were more likely to develop significant hepatic inflammation, and females with significant inflammation were at a higher risk of developing autoimmunity during follow-up.
