Epstein-Barr Virus Reactivation Causing Cholestatic Hepatitis.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Infection with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is common and associated with a high seroprevalence. It is often asymptomatic, but infectious mononucleosis (IM) is the clinical hallmark of this disease especially among teens. Hepatic involvement during primary EBV infection often results in mild self-resolving elevation of liver enzymes, typically in association with IM. However, cholestatic hepatitis might sporadically occur. EBV reactivation is rare, especially among immunocompetent patients. Moreover, reactivation of EBV causing isolated cholestatic hepatitis is extremely rare and only reported in patients who are immunocompromised. Here we present a unique case of EBV reactivation causing cholestatic hepatitis in an otherwise healthy and immunocompetent female and we review the epidemiology, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of EBV induced cholestatic hepatitis.
