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

Over the past decade, genetically engineered mouse models have been used for studies of the mechanisms underlying human diseases. One advantage of these models is that the targeted protein executes its function in normal cells in their natural tissue microenvironments. Transgenic mouse models for human viral hepatitis have also been established and have provided new insights into the pathogenesis of hepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In the search for the mechanism of hepatocarcinogenesis in hepatitis viral infection, two viral proteins, the core protein of hepatitis C virus (HCV) and the HBx protein of hepatitis B virus (HBV), have been shown to possess oncogenic potential through transgenic mouse studies, indicating the direct involvement of the hepatitis viruses in hepatocarcinogenesis. The presence of the hepatitis C virus core or HBx protein, which has an oncogenic potential, may allow some of the steps in multistep hepatocarcinogenesis to be skipped. This may explain the very high frequency of HCC in patients with HCV or HBV infection.
