Vanishing Bile Duct Syndrome as an Uncommon Hepatic Paraneoplastic Syndrome in Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
Article in Case reports in hepatology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Vanishing bile duct syndrome (VBDS) is a rare form of liver injury caused by ischemia, drug reactions, autoimmune diseases, infections, or malignancy. VBDS involves the progressive disappearance of intrahepatic bile ducts, causing cholestasis and biliary cirrhosis, with high mortality if untreated. VBDS can also present as a paraneoplastic syndrome in Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). A 53-year-old female presented with jaundice, pruritus, diarrhea, and elevated liver function tests (LFTs). A liver biopsy demonstrated cholestasis with mild ductopenia, and imaging revealed enlarged para-aortic lymph nodes. A bone marrow biopsy confirmed HL, and chemotherapy normalized symptoms and LFTs.
