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 Objectives: Few studies have provided real-world data on the biochemical response, risk assessment, and prognosis of patients with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC)-related decompensated cirrhosis undergoing ursodeoxycholic acid therapy. The objective of this study is to define recompensation in this patient population based on the BAVENO VII criteria. Methods: This retrospective analysis included 170 patients with cirrhosis who presented with ascites, hepatic encephalopathy, and/or variceal bleeding as their initial decompensating events at Xijing Hospital from 2006 to 2023. Events of further decompensation, liver transplantation, and liver-related death were recorded. Results: Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) had complex prognostic value in patients with PBC-related decompensated cirrhosis receiving ursodeoxycholic acid therapy. In patients with normal total bilirubin (TBIL) at the 1-year follow-up, elevated ALP was associated with poor prognosis (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.57, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.12-5.87, Conclusions: We defined PBC recompensation as a Model for End-Stage Liver Disease score < 10 and the absence of decompensating events from the last decompensated state for the next 12 months, aligned with the requirements of BAVENO VII for patients with PBC-related decompensated cirrhosis.
