Trial Sequential Analysis of nine randomised clinical trials (394 participants) evaluating terlipressin versus other vasoactive drugs for people with hepatorenal syndrome on lack of reversal of hepatorenal syndrome. The analysis was made with power 90%, alpha 3%, a relative risk reduction (RRR) of 25%, a control group risk (CGR) of lack of reversal of hepatorenal syndrome of 63%, and a heterogeneity correction of 50%. The risk ratio was 0.79 (97% confidence interval 0.48 to 1.31). The cumulative Z‐curve (blue line) does not cross the diversity‐adjusted trial monitoring boundary for benefit.
