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

backgroundLamivudine (LMV), as the preferred oral drug for use in treatment of HBV, always results in development of resistance mutations after long-term treatment. In this study we investigated chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients in southern China to determine whether different HBV genotypes affect the incidence of LMV resistance mutations. MATERIAL/

methodsThe study recruited 185 CHB patients living in southern China. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to test for HBV serological markers, and HBV DNA was quantified by real-time PCR. Sequencing was performed to detect HBV genotypes and mutations.

resultsThere were 49.19% (91/185) CHB patients with HBV resistant to LMV. Only 2 genotypes were found: B and C; 62.16% (115/185) of patients were infected with genotype B HBV and 37.84% (70/185) of patients were infected with genotype C HBV. The incidence rate of LMV resistance was not significantly different between genotype B and C (49.57% vs. 48.57%, P>0.05). For the mean age and sex ratio, no significant difference was found. The pattern of rtM204I alone was predominantly observed (36.26%, 33/91), followed by rtM204V+rtL180M (23.08%, 21/91). The overall incidence rate of rtM204I mutation in genotype B (45.61%, 26/57) was more frequent than that in genotype C (20.59%, 7/34) (45.61% vs. 20.59%, P<0.05), but the incidence rate of other mutation patterns was not significantly different between genotypes B and C.

conclusionsOur results emphasize that a LMV resistance test before treatment is of great importance in rational and optimal CHB therapy.
