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

Growing evidence demonstrates that hepatitis B virus (HBV) integration and resulting insertional mutagenesis play an important role in cell growth or maintenance in hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs). To determine if HBV integration occurs and affects cellular genes at such a stage of infection, we analysed viral-host junctions in chronic hepatitis tissues without HCC using PCR amplification with primers specific to human Alu-repeat and HBV. We obtained 42 independent viral-host junctions from six patients examined and identified chromosomal locations for 20 of the 42 junctions. In six clones, each integration apparently affected a single gene. These six candidate genes included one known tumor suppressor gene, three human homologs of drosophila genes that are critical for organ development, one putative oncogene and one recently found chemokine. Our data, together with previously reported HBV integrants in HCCs, suggested preferential HBV integration into chromosome 3 (P = 0.022). Our virus-tagging approach provided (a) firm evidence of HBV integration in hepatocytes at an early stage of chronic infection and (b) revealed cellular genes possibly affected by HBV integration and potentially involved in early steps of the process leading to carcinogenesis.
