Life-Threatening Gastrointestinal Bleeding in a Child with Acute Hepatitis A.
Article in Children (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
backgroundHepatitis A virus (HAV) infection is a common cause of acute viral hepatitis in children. Severe complications are rare but may occur, particularly in older children or in the presence of concomitant conditions. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of an 11-year-old girl with acute hepatitis A with severe hepatic derangements who developed life-threatening upper gastrointestinal bleeding due to a previously undiagnosed duodenal ulcer. Emergency endoscopy confirmed active bleeding from a duodenal ulcer, and the patient survived the complications with treatment with a proton pump inhibitor and hemostatic management with blood products.
conclusionsAlthough hepatitis A is generally benign in children, this case highlights the potential for severe and life-threatening complications.
