Predictive factors associated with the progression to hepatic failure caused by lamivudine-resistant HBV.
Article in Digestive diseases and sciences, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The aims of this study were to select the patients with a potential for progression to hepatic failure due to lamivudine-resistant HBV and to standardize the treatment for patients with lamivudine-resistant HBV. Patients (n = 47) with reactivated hepatitis due to lamivudine-resistant HBV were classified into two groups, with and without potential for progression to hepatic failure, according to the criteria using the data of serum bilirubin level and prothrombin activity after the reactivated hepatitis. Multivariate analysis showed that prothrombin activity at the initiation of lamivudine therapy was related to the deterioration of the liver function after the emergence of lamivudine-resistant HBV (P = 0.0025, 95%CI 0.8269-0.9601). We assume that earlier additional or substitutive treatment with other antiviral agent, such as adefovir dipivoxil, should be recommended when the lamivudine-resistant HBV is detected in patients with the history of decompensated liver disease before the administration of lamivudine, even when hepatitis has not been reactivated yet.
