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

Chronic high Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) load (CHL) carriage has been closely associated with EBV infection after pediatric liver transplantation. Elevated tacrolimus (Tac) blood concentrations increased the risk of EBV-associated diseases. Tacrolimus intra-patient variability (Tac-IPV) help predict poor outcomes. This study examines whether Tac-IPV correlate with CHL carriage in living-donor-dominant pediatric liver transplantation. We analyzed the clinical data of 153 pediatric liver transplant recipients receiving Tac treatment with a 2-year follow-up period. Tac-IPV quantification as coefficient of variation (CV). CHL was defined as EBV DNA > 16,000 copies/mL in whole blood or > 200 copies/10
