Effect of liver steatosis on therapeutic response in chronic hepatitis C virus genotype 1 infected patients in hungary.
Trial report in Pathology oncology research : POR, 2010. 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
Hepatic steatosis seems a frequent histological alteration seen in chronic hepatitis C virus infected patients. There is still a lot to learn about the exact mechanism of effect of liver steatosis and its influence on the progression of liver diseases. Our study involved 96 chronic hepatitis C genotype 1 infected Hungarian patients who received pegylated interferon and ribavirin treatment for the first time. Degree of steatosis, viral and host factors influencing its development and its effect on the efficiency of antiviral treatment were determined. In 61 (64%) of patients the liver tissue showed varying degree of steatosis, which did not show relationship with level of alcohol consumption (p = 0.5792), diabetes mellitus (p = 0.5925) or body mass index (p = 0.9685) in type 1 chronic hepatitis C patients. Degree of steatosis and virus titer showed strong relationship (OR = 2.1). Significant relationship was also found between degree of hepatic steatosis and stage (p = 0.0119), as well as between therapeutic response to combined pegylated interferon + ribavirin treatment and steatosis (p = 0.0012). Our results demonstrated that steatosis has clinical significance in hepatitis C virus genotype 1 infected patients.
