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

Objective: This study aimed to explore the predictive value of liver and spleen stiffness measurement based on two-dimensional shear wave elastography for the portal vein pressure in patients with compensatory viral cirrhosis. Methods: From January 2017 to August 2019, 107 patients with compensatory viral cirrhosis and 76 patients with viral hepatitis were enrolled as cirrhosis group and hepatitis group, respectively. Patient data were obtained during admission, and this study was a review and analysis of patient data. Liver stiffness measurement (LSM), spleen stiffness measurement (SSM), portal vein diameter and spleen thickness were compared between the two groups, and their diagnostic value for compensatory viral cirrhosis was analyzed. According to the hepatic vein pressure, the cirrhosis group patients were divided into non-hypertensive group (no portal hypertension, hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG) < 5 mmHg), mild group (mild portal hypertension, 5 mmHg ≤ HVPG ≤ 10 mmHg) and severe group (clinically significant portal hypertension group, HVPG > 10 mmHg). LSM, SSM, portal vein diameter and spleen thickness of the three groups were compared, and the correlation between SSM and hepatic vein pressure was analyzed. Results: LSM, SSM, portal vein diameter and spleen thickness in the cirrhosis group were higher than those in hepatitis group (all Conclusion: There was an increase of LSM and SSM in patients with compensatory viral cirrhosis, which were positively correlated with hepatic venous pressure, and combined index detection has diagnostic and predictive value for the change of portal venous pressure.
