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

Decompensated cirrhosis has long been considered the irreversible end stage of liver disease, characterised by further decompensating events until death or liver transplantation. However, the observed clinical improvements after effective antiviral treatments for HBV and HCV and after sustained alcohol abstinence have changed this paradigm, leading to the concept of "recompensation" of cirrhosis. Recompensation of cirrhosis was recently defined by Baveno VII as (i) cure of the primary liver disease aetiology; (ii) disappearance of signs of decompensation (ascites, encephalopathy and portal hypertensive bleeding) off therapy; and (iii) stable improvement of liver function tests (bilirubin, international normalised ratio and albumin). Achieving these recompensation criteria is linked to a significant survival benefit. However, apart from aetiological therapies, no interventions/treatments that facilitate recompensation are available, the molecular mechanisms underlying recompensation remain incompletely understood, and early predictors of recompensation are lacking. Moreover, current recompensation criteria are based on expert opinion and may be refined in the future. Herein, we review the available evidence on cirrhosis recompensation, provide guidance on the clinical management of recompensated patients and discuss future challenges related to cirrhosis recompensation.
