The Impact of COVID-19 and COVID-19 Vaccination on Detection, Assessment, and Management of Suspected Acute Drug-Induced Liver Injury Occurring during Clinical Trials: Consensus Recommendations from the IQ DILI Initiative.
Review in Drug safety, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
While the acute impact of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has waned, implications for clinical trials remain. In particular, guidance for evaluation of elevated liver tests due to COVID-19, its treatments, and COVID-19 vaccination is lacking. The IQ DILI Initiative, composed of experts from academia, regulatory agencies, and industry herein propose recommendations to address this gap. Extensive literature review was conducted and structured discussions were held between IQ DILI industry members, regulators, and academic experts in hepatology and DILI. Liver-related manifestations in nonhospitalized patients with COVID-19 are highly varied. Evidence of liver injury may occur after COVID-19 symptoms resolve and testing is negative. Treatments for COVID-19 may cause liver injury or alter pharmacokinetics. COVID-19 vaccination has been associated with rare but clear hepatotoxicity, typically consistent with drug-induced autoimmune-like hepatitis, although other presentations, severity, latency, and time to resolution have been reported. Liver injury occurred with mRNA and viral vector vaccines, and in individuals with and without underlying autoimmune or liver diseases. Drug developers and investigators should be aware of the potential liver-related manifestations related to COVID-19, its treatments, and COVID-19 vaccination, as this may impact study eligibility and causality assessment during a trial. COVID-19 testing should be considered part of DILI causality assessment, as a positive test may prevent premature termination of the investigational drug. Since clinical trial participants may not consider vaccinations in their medical history, specific inquiry about their receipt is important when liver tests are abnormal during screening and as part of DILI causality assessment.
