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

Acute liver injury is a rare yet serious complication of bariatric surgery, particularly Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. We report the case of a 39-year-old woman with a history of hepatitis A and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease who developed acute liver injury after significant weight loss and malnutrition post-Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. On admission, she presented with steatorrhea, jaundice, and severe hepatic dysfunction. Investigations revealed vitamin A and D deficiencies, steatosis, fibrosis (F3), and severe malabsorption. Total parenteral nutrition was initiated 3 days postadmission and continued for 5.5 months. The patient achieved 8kg weight gain, normalization of liver function tests and vitamin levels, and reversal of steatosis and fibrosis (F0/S2 on repeat Fibroscan). Clinically, her symptoms resolved, and she no longer required a liver transplant. This case highlights the potential of early, sustained total parenteral nutrition in reversing acute liver injury secondary to malnutrition and underscores the importance of comprehensive nutritional support postbariatric surgery.
