Pediatric Cholestasis: A Practical Approach to Histological Diagnosis.
Review in Diagnostics (Basel, Switzerland), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Pediatric (neonatal and infantile) jaundice resulting from underlying cholestasis (caused by conjugated hyperbilirubinemia) is always pathological and requires prompt evaluation. Pediatric cholestasis can be caused by medical or surgical factors and, if left untreated, can lead to irreversible liver damage. Timely recognition of pediatric cholestasis and identification of the underlying etiology are paramount to improve outcomes. The broad spectrum of causes potentially underlying pediatric cholestasis requires a multidisciplinary diagnostic approach, and each aspect must be interpreted in the concomitant clinical picture. A liver biopsy is one component of a complex diagnostic puzzle. However, interpreting a liver biopsy performed on a newborn/infant with conjugated/direct hyperbilirubinemia can be a challenging task, as these biopsies are rarely encountered in general hospitals. The aim of this review is to provide a practical and simplified approach to pediatric cholestasis with examples of real clinical cases we have encountered and discuss key features, both histological and clinical, that can help narrow the differential diagnosis and identify treatable causes.
