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

Caroli disease (CD) is a rare congenital hepatobiliary disorder characterized by multifocal segmental dilatation of the intrahepatic bile ducts, which may involve the entire liver or only a specific region. This rare pathology is seen in a very small proportion of the global population. Clinical manifestations vary between individuals and may overlap with other hepatobiliary disorders, making diagnosis and management challenging. Due to limited understanding and experience, early diagnosis and intervention are crucial for improving survival. In our case, Caroli disease is associated with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD), both of which are autosomal recessive disorders most commonly found in infants and children, with survival into adulthood being rare.
