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

The diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is supported by the presence of elevated transaminases, hypergammaglobulinemia, liver biopsy consistent with AIH, and the presence of AIH autoantibodies. In this case presentation, we highlight the challenges associated with diagnosing AIH in a patient with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) who presented with elevated transaminases, hypergammaglobulinemia, and without typical autoantibodies. Additionally, on hepatic ultrasound, the patient was found to have hepatic lymphadenopathy concerning for infection or malignancy. Furthermore, the patient's IBD was treated with vedolizumab, which is associated with drug-induced liver injury. They were previously treated with azathioprine, which is associated with malignancy. Ultimately, a liver biopsy was able to confirm the diagnosis of AIH after all other potential causes of elevated transaminases were excluded.
