Review in Clinics in liver disease, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 29 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Human genome variations explain some of the heterogeneity in the immune response to antigenic stimuli. Such differences in response to hepatitis C virus (HCV) antigens can account for the ability of the immune response to clear HCV after an acute infection or to develop more rapidly progressive liver disease. Several studies have examined polymorphisms in several candidate immune-response genes for their relation to these HCV outcomes. Results of some of these studies complement knowledge gained from immunology studies, and others offer new insights into HCV biology. This review summarizes published studies on variation in immune-response genes and HCV outcomes.
