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

Hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI) typically presents in infancy with acute metabolic crisis upon the introduction of fructose. We report a case of a 13-year-old female with chronic abdominal pain, short stature, and persistent mild transaminitis. Despite a late presentation, hepatic steatosis was identified on ultrasound and biopsy. Genetic testing confirmed a homozygous pathogenic ALDOB variant. This case illustrates that self-imposed dietary avoidance can mask classic HFI symptoms, leading to a delayed diagnosis of "lean" hepatic steatosis in adolescence.
