Biliary atresia combined with progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3: A case report and review of the literature.
Review in Medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
rationaleNeonatal cholestasis is one of the most serious diseases in infancy. Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is a disease that leads to intrahepatic cholestasis. It is one of the common causes of neonatal cholestasis in addition to biliary atresia (BA). The differential diagnosis of neonatal cholestasis is clinically challenging for pediatricians. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 4-month-old female presented with severe jaundice, pruritus, and pale stool for 20 days. Abnormally strong echoes near the portal area, an abnormally small gallbladder with an irregularly stiff wall, and splenomegaly were identified on abdominal ultrasound. Blood tests showed elevated alanine aminotransferase, total bilirubin, conjugated bilirubin, gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase, and total bile acid levels. DIAGNOSIS: Intraoperative cholangiography showed BA. ABCB4 gene mutation IVS13+6G>A/G was confirmed by genetic testing. The patient was diagnosed with BA combined with PFIC3.
interventionsKasai portoenterostomy and ursodeoxycholic acid were used for treatment. OUTCOMES: Her clinical symptoms and blood tests improved gradually. No recurrence was noted during 1 year of follow-up. LESSONS: Additional examinations, such as genetic testing, should be considered in patients with BA who had refractory jaundice after Kasai portoenterostomy in order to exclude intrahepatic cholestasis.
