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

Biological sex has a profound impact on disease severity, outcomes and diagnosis yet, its role in clinical disease is insufficiently explored. Acute on chronic liver failure (ACLF) is associated with high mortality and multiple organ dysfunctions, where acute kidney injury (AKI) significantly worsens prognosis. Here we investigated the impact of sex on the diagnostic parameters used for severity grading in ACLF. We enrolled 1,134 ACLF patients, and shortlisted 757 patients (636 males, 121 females) admitted to All India Institute of Medical Sciences, New Delhi, between 2016 and 2023. ACLF-AKI was defined and staged according to International Club of Ascites criteria. The impact of sex on baseline clinical parameters, AKI incidence, and progression were assessed using the statistical tools IBM SPSS 26.0 and GraphPad Prism 8.0. Males exhibited a higher incidence of AKI (48.34%) compared to females (28.09%). However, no significant sex-based differences were observed in AKI stages. Males also had an overall high absolute value of sCr and blood urea compared to females. However, female ACLF patients who developed AKI exhibited a significantly higher ΔsCr levels compared to males (
