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

Liver disease impacts millions of Americans every year, which is compounded by the comorbidities and consequences that patients are susceptible to developing. Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is a severe consequence of liver failure resulting in a range of cognitive deficits that heavily impact quality of life. Approximately 40% of acute liver failure (ALF) patients and 50% of chronic liver disease patients will be diagnosed with HE, and the associated prognosis is 44% and 42%, respectively. Though understanding of some of the neurologic impacts of liver impairment exists, the pathology of HE is not yet fully elucidated. Many in the field have come to appreciate the role of neuroinflammation in its pathogenesis. In this review, we have summarized recent studies investigating aspects of neuroinflammation such as microgliosis, astrogliosis, proinflammatory cytokine and chemokine production, and the involvement of the choroid plexus and meninges in HE.
